InnerHTML problem

Hi,

I have an html page which has a div tag. I can use the innerhtml property to change the text between the two tags. But how can I use java script to get the html from another file, such as an include or an asp file?

Can I call an asp file from javascript and print the output to the innerhtml property?

Please help, project might depend on it!:eek:

You cant read the content of another file using client-side javascript. The only way to do it is to use either a server-side language or something like an IFrame or ILayer (not advised).

I am using javascript client side and vb server side. But how do I call the asp from the client side script and get html back without replacing the current page? I would like to use the returned html in a div tag using the innerhtml property.

You might be able to use Remote Scripting to do this

I see that remote scripting is not recommended. Do you have any information about SOAP?

I don't know anything about it, but I've been curious.

I only know little bits of it as I've used it briefly with XML.

W3Schools has a good introduction or guide
