including one html file into another [closed]

Answer 1

If you only have HTML on your server, or you need only HTML files, you can use frames.

<frameset rows="25%,75%">
  <frame src="header.html" />
  <frame src="index.html" />
</frameset>

or iframes like this (in your index.html file):

<iframe src="header.html" />

But, it is not recommended as it creates a kind of table. If you have PHP on your server, create a PHP file, and use

include("header.html");

If you have SSI (Server Side Includes) on your webserver, then have this:

<!--#include virtual="header.html" -->

Personally, I suggest you to use PHP method.

Answer 2

The only "include" mechanisms in HTML itself are (i)frames and objects.

HTML doesn't have an 'include' mechanism - I'm not sure where you've seen these solutions on StackOverflow. You've probably been looking at answers for a server side language such as PHP or ASP.
