I have several HTML pages that share a menu area. Every time I update the menu area (eg with new “breaking news”) I need to update all 10 pages manually.
With frames, they all point to same frame page so I only need to change one page. But I was told frames are bad and I should use divs. Is there a simple way to do this with divs? (preferably without JQuery or Ajax)
You could use an
iframe. It still is sort of a frame, but you would avoid a frameset-index-page and if you set borders to 0 and content that fits in you won’t even see borders or scroll-bars and it will behave like adivYou should use fixed width-heights though to avoid scrollbars. To me its the simplest “html-only”-solution to your problem.
