Include one html file in another

[Spartanicus]

For a non essential enhancement of one of my pages I'd like to include a
remote html file via javascript (server side is not available to me).

The "include" method that I'm familiar with:

<script src="include.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

with include.js containing:

document.write("<table>")
document.write("<tr>")
[...]

wouldn't work because it's a remote file. Is there a way to include a
remote file?

HTML file

So why did you give an example of a JAVASCRIPT file that WRITES out
HTML?

<iframe> - bad.

HTML file

To prevent being pointed out how to do that, it would have been useless
as the question specifically pertained to including a non local file.
<iframe>

Different thing completely, iframe/object opens a new viewport, included
html is part of the original document.

How about using JavaScript to get the remote page into an XML object,
then use an almost empty XSL to display the HTML?

Sounds intriguing, care to expand?
