Maybe you could try an XMLHTTP grab? i.e. use some JavaScript to grab the contents of the file, strip away whatever's outside the body tag and insert the resultant text into the area on your page where you want it.

Hello,
I'm programming in a little enterprise, and also I maintain it's web page.
Today I've noticed that one of the links is not working properly: the link points to the right file (IM SURE, REALLY SURE) and when I click that link, it only appears a blank web page with the name of the right file.
I've called my ISP and they told me that it is a programming question and that they doesn't support it.
Well, I've deleted all my cookies and all my temporary files and even in this way, it still show me the blank page.
ADDITIONAL NOTE:
I have my web page translated to some languages.
As I have not had enough time to translate it to italian, portuguese and german, I had copied the same files that in english in order to have the same directory structure. The funniest thing is that if I copy the italian folder (in which the same link works OK) inside the english folder, with the same file names and so on, the problem still happens...
if you want to test it, go to:
http://www.tamelectromecanica.com/angles/nivell2-lesnostresm-re5cp-0001.htm[^]
(this is the one that doesn't work)
http://www.tamelectromecanica.com/italia/nivell2-lesnostresm-re5cp-0001.htm[^]
(this is the one that works)
PS:
the normal way to access the page that don't work would be:
1. www.tamelectromecanica.com
2. OUR MACHINES
3. TAM RE 5CP (the english version is the one that doesn't work)
thank you in advance...

Well, both of the links that you provided work fine...

Solved... I have only to press Ctrl+F5 in order to reload the page, it seems that if I press only F5 the page is not trully reloaded...

Both links work nicely, though I have no idea what mopes are. Could that have been meant to be mops?

well... I also have no idea what mopes are...  I'll check it and change it as fast as I can... thank you...
and returning to the main problem, I can't understand why in two computers in my enterprise I can't see the english link...

Yes, F5 only reloads the page from the local cache, and only fetches a fresh copy if the local copy has expired. Ctrl-F5 overrides that behavior and forces a fresh copy to be requested.

I have a page with a form in ASP. On the page a have a select box, when the user selects an option, the form is posted and the corresponding data is loaded into a new select box. This I have no problem with. What I do have a problem with is when the user clicks on the submit button to add the data to the database. Form validation must first take place. I do not know how to go about that form validation only occurs when the user clicks the sumbit button. The form is posted in one of 2 ways, either by selecting an option in the select box, or when clicking the submit button. It might sound confusing now, but send me a mail at brcvogt@yahoo.com then I can explain more and send you my sample code. I need this to be done ASAP as it is part of my college project.

I think you would be better off posting your code straight up here. You're more likely to get the response you're after.

This is the way I do that sort of thing:
<code language="javascript">
function insertSomeText(str) {
document.getElementById('yourtextarea').focus();
var sel = document.selection;
if (sel!=null) {
var rng = sel.createRange();
if (rng!=null)
rng.pasteHTML(str);
}
}

I have a frameset with two frames. For both frames, I set scrollbar=auto (which is by default). So when there is a lot of content, scrollbars appear, and when it fits on one page, there is no scrollbars.
However, I notice that when the scrollbars are not visible, there is still some whitespace reserved for it all the way down the right side of the screen.
I notice this because in the body of the page, I have a DIV element and I set its background color to black. And the black does not reach all the way to the right edge of the screen.
How can I eliminate the white space?

I'm not sure if this would work for your situation, but in the body tag of the actual html file being displayed in the frame, put style="overflow:auto;"

Which is faster? As an example, CodeProject uses tables for their forums, is that faster or would it be faster if they were based in DIVs?

I dont think that one is faster than the other in terms of rendering.
Obviously a table is more HTML code than just a DIV but provides better layout flexibility.
I personally find tables very usefull and I prefere them when it comes to layout.
In addition, the table tag is older and is supported properly by all browsers. Of course, now, the DIV is also supported but not fully and properly by older browsers.
If your web page is to be viewed by older browsers I would suggest to use tables. Otherwise, it doesnt really make a difference. At least this is what I believe...

People with browsers that can't handle DIVs properly don't deserve to see web pages correctly.
|
|

|

Many people believe that...
But it is the biggest mistake that you can do. even if these people are only the 5% of your target group then you allready lost some potential customers.
If you make web pages for fun, ok I agree... But I make e-commerce sites and if 1 person cant view the web site, then I have 1 less customer...
So I cannot afford not to provide a web page that is 100% compatible with all browsers.Believe it or not but there are people who do use older browsers..

And if your site maintenance costs are 10% higher in order to support support and additional 1% of your possible audience is the trade off worth it? Depends on your cost/revenue model of course, but you'd better think it through.
Do you support lynx as well? How about screen readers?
It's not as simple as you make it out to be.
Based on log analysis of existing traffic I've decided the reduced maintenance of only supporting CSS capable browsers is worth the loosing the tiny percentage of really backwards browsers.
