RE: a though one

Hi Camila,
If you put "id" tags in the ssi, then you can modify those portions of your 
document, just the same as if it was one single file. For example if you had a 
banner.ssi included in your doc, the banner.ssi could have a <span 
id="UserName">Mike</span>.  You could then simply use the normal 
page.setTextUserName("Camila")..

Or if you want to choose from a few diffent blocks of content you can remove 
the ones you don't want, and keep the one you want.  For example I have a 
single html document  where I  need to choose from 4 or 5 different tables. 
<table id="Type1Table">
<table id="Type2Table">
<table id="Type3Table">
etc.

At run time,  I removeChild() all the tables I do not want, but keep the one(s) 
I need.


If you have many,many fragments that you want to choose from, it might be more 
practical to have seperate documents, and use importNode() to move nodes from 
one Document to another.

It depends on your application, and requirements.

Hope this helps,
Mike.

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));
