RE: a though one

Thanks Scott and Mike, I'll try it.
 But Mike, the "template" I want to use needs to be dynamically modified
too. Could the HTML fragment in the .ssi be dynamically modified too?
 Thanks again,
Camila

As Scott mentioned you need to use importNode()..

Another option that may or may not be useful for you is to use XMLC's
compile-time includes..
This is very similar to Server-Side Includes that are supported by many web
servers..

So in your html you can do things like..
<!--#include virtual="../media/OurBanner.ssi"-->

OurBanner.ssi is HTML fragment that will be inserted into your html file as
it is being compiled.  The common html will be compiled-in when you run the
XMLC compiler.
I don't know if HTML editors support the ssi tags though, so if you preview
the files in your browser, or editor you may not see how the entire page
will look..

I haven't actually used this, but others have used it.
The main advantage for you would less coding & importing of nodes, and less
application overhead.

Mike.

Hi,

Take a look at Document.importNode(), you need to import the node from
WelcomeHTML into BaseHTML before adding it to BaseHTML's DOM, something
like:

celldestino.appendChild(celldestino.getOwnerDocument().importNode(hijo,
true));
