Hello All,

I am trying to embed an external page into a web site without the need for using framesets. It has been a long time since I have been back inside the world of web development. Using frames seems very limiting tho'. I am hoping there is now a better way? Thanks.

I think the best approach for what you want to do is use a server side scripting language to include the external html. In PHP it would be:

<?php include "path to your file" ?>

Other server side scripting languages like ASP can accomplish the same thing as can server side includes (SSI)

The external file you include doesn't need to be an entire HTML page. It could just be the code for your menu which would then be included on the page wherever you add the PHP, ASP, SSI, etc code.

Thanks. That worked perfectly. I've been afraid of digging into PHP for fear it would be complex. Now that I've looked into it, it's a cinch!
