Here is the application...
I have a web page that is supplying 'event' information. Instead of having to download that page, make the changes and then upload the page, I was thinking of having a 'table' that called out another nested HTML (ie. event.html). Then in one's leasure, he/she can create a new information page, save it as "event.html", upload it, and instantly the new page (perhaps even with new graphics) is displayed.

Is that do-able? If so, how? or is there an even better/simpler way?

Thanks!

You might take a look at using the Include component to do that (Insert | Component | Include Page). That will allow you to "include" a page within another page.

You can make your main page with a table that will hold the information and then have your event.html page included in that. Your event.html page can be a plain 'ol HTML page with text and graphics. That stuff will be inserted in the table on your main page.

I think that's the funcionality you're after, is that correct? Hope that helps...

Thanks! That looks like what I'm after. I will play with it and see what happens. Do you know if this only works with FP, or will it work with other browsers too? If not, is there an HTML or Javascript command that will achieve the same results?

It will work in all browsers (IE, Netscape, Mozilla, Opera, etc.) because the combining of files is done on the server before the information is sent to the client's computer.

Have fun and let us know if you run into any problems.
