- ajax: Yes, Need to consider the CSS issue
- Callback actions called after loaded the content
client-side approach
Frame or iframe
frame or iframe tag
- 缺點是瀏覽器上的鏈結,非該篇網頁的靜態鏈結。
- 額外需要處理的議題:(1)點選連結,內容會直接顯示在 frame 內,如果 frame 太小,會需要額外處理。例如:frame內的連結,以新視窗開啟。(2)Iframes and CSS - Styling Iframes With CSS
- cross frame layers
- code: <object width="400" height="400" data="path/to/plain_text.txt"></object>
Javascript
- general (JavaScript Tip: Page Headers And Footers)
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="path/to.js"></script> <noscript><a href="URL">Description</a><noscript>
