XMLHTTP object and client-side include

I'm trying to develop a way to include static files in htm pages with
javascript.

I'm trying to use XMLHTTP object this way:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>XMLHTT P</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<script type="text/javascript">

var xmlhttp=false;

try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject(" Msxml2.XMLHTTP" );
} catch (e) {
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject(" Microsoft.XMLHT TP");
} catch (E) {
xmlhttp = false;
}
}

if (!xmlhttp && typeof XMLHttpRequest! ='undefined') {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest( );
}

function include(xUrl,xI d){
xmlhttp.open("G ET", xUrl,true);
xmlhttp.onready statechange=fun ction() {
if (xmlhttp.readyS tate==4) {
document.getEle mentById(xId).i nnerHTML = xmlhttp.respons eText;
}
}
xmlhttp.send(nu ll)
}

</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
include("header .htm", "xheader");
</script>
<div id="xheader"></div>
<hr>Corpo<hr>
<div id="xfooter"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
include("footer .htm", "xfooter");
</script>
</body>
</html>

----------------------------------------------------------------------
header.htm and footer.htm are html examples files.

It doesn't work if I call header and footer but if I call only header it
works.
Any help much appreciated.

Best Regards.

why not simply use Server Side Include, or the php equivalent ?

Because on my hosting-server they are not supported.

be carefull, you must place "div" tag before the script, ie :

...
<div id="xheader"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
include("header .htm", "xheader");
</script>
...

Then you should switch ASAP to another service provider or wait for, hm,
another year to get XMLHTTPRequest widely implemented. And then it is
likely that you have a Web where exploits let emerge UAs where this single
feature, short of disabling client-side scripting completely or not even
have it supported in the first place, can be disabled. Fortunately,
hosting prices would have dropped by then as well.

BTW: Your sender address is forged which violates/disregards Internet
standards, most certainly the Acceptable Use Policy of your Usenet access
provider (NGI S.p.A.) and Netiquette. Change this ASAP or prepare to face
the consequences.

It is supported in perhaps 90% of browsers on the web, how much more
"widely" do you want it implemented?

You could also consider using iframes. They have their own set of
issues, but they are simple to implement.

His childish bullshit about email addresses and attributions is why he's one
of only two people in my killfile. He spends more time going on about what
other people did wrong in their postings than any other topic. It negates the
useful stuff he posts.

Some people need to learn that they aren't the 'net police. Until they do, I
don't need to take up my valuable time reading their crap.
