[Javascript] Any creative way to pull html content same way js files are pulled

[BEKIM BACAJ]

Im sure you are aware of the fact that IE has implemented a databinding 
object since IE 4.01 version browser, but that NN didn't(?) -And because of 
this fact you ask for some work-around, in order to write browser 
independent scripts and HTML, I was having this problem a few years ago 
because of a simple thought: My aim was having some page, "a master layout", 
that can host some fancy contents, always fresh materials, realtime 
updatable, as the client reads it. But I never wrote it.

My original idea was to update DIV contents Headings etc, without ever 
leaving the page. <script src="" ...can read any text doc async., what makes 
it the best choice. As soon as you change the src.,loc., it downloads the 
newlly aquired location.

with a script that can read the src file date modifyed, you can ask 
automatic reload of the same document with some timer cycling at most once 
per minute, as son as the content manager has closed the document, and as 
soon as the script checks for date time change and compares with variable 
time date of the first session load, and returns false it is time to notify 
and ask the client:new content avilable! update: yes |now, he will be 
propted again in a minute.

but as I've said, I never wrote it.

About scrollbars, srollbars-not,
reading these posts you've inspired me to think of a script that can make it 
possible (in case of nonscrollable body height and width of the page two 
times larger than user screen) to give the client ability to navigate and 
move the page layout with the mouse same way they do in AcrobatReader. 
Woulldn't it be nice?

Nice creative exchanges going on
Thanks
