Hi friends,

I'm curently in a small predicament I built my website in the classical way , banner , menu , contnent. The thing is , in order to display my contnent I use an iframe and anchor butoons to link the pages of my site to it.
code:

<div id="menu">
<a href="home.html" target="testframe">HOME</a> <br />
<a href="aboutus.html" target="testframe">ABOUT US</a> <br />

</div>


<div id="contnent">

<iframe src="home.html" name="testframe" scrolling="no" width="680" height="600"></iframe>


</div>


I recently learned that iframes are not good to use to display contnent and they slow down the website.

My questions is , would another div be better to display my contnent ? if yes please tell me how can i link a external page to my <div> and also if you have other better ways to display contnent of the website please share them with me.

Best regards,
Alex

I'm 99% sure you can't show external pages to a div. That's what iFrames are for. Why do you want to get rid of the iframe?

Click to expand...

well another forums people are saying iframe is old and obsolete and also slows down a website , anyway i found a solution to my problem with jquery and ajax

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
$("div").load('test1.txt');
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>

<div><h2>Let AJAX change this text</h2></div>
<button>Change Content</button>

</body>
</html>

courtesy to w3schools

i will addapt this code to my website. if you know other ways to display contnent to website please share with me.

thank you
