Display external webpage into a webpage

I have 2 HTML files (both in the same directory). How can I display content of one into another?

I can think of these ways:

1. Create XMLHTTPR开发者_JS百科equest. Fetch the HTML file and display in appropriate location.
2. Use iframes

What are others methods to diplay external HTML file?

You basically have three options to do this.

How do you even have proposed two:

• Using only HTML, you need to do it with iframe. Your user will need to make 2 http requests to load 2 html files.
• Using only HTML and JavaScript, you also can work with XMLHTTPRequest or some JavaScript framework (like jQuery) to do that Ajax to you. Your users will need to make 2 http requests also, but SEO will be a problem in this case.

The third option, like others have suggested, is:

• Using a server side processing, like the suggested PHP include or ASP.NET UserControl. I think it's the best approach since the user will never know you have 2 files to show that page and also will need only 1 http request. And better for SEO crawlers too.

As an ASP.NET programmer, I personally like to have a base aspx page and split its sections using the UserControls ascx. The generated html remain clean in a single file.

You can also use server-side proxy. However, I'd personally use these iframes

If your host supports PHP then you can make the containing HTML file into a PHP file and include the other one with include(). This is exactly the reason I learned PHP in the first place.
