display webpage within webpage?

[m4a2t0t]

Is there any other way besides an IFRAME to display a webpage within a webpage? I cannot use IFRAMES on ebay.

I am selling some fishing lures and they come in various colors, I add new colors every week and its becoming a real pain in the butt to modify 25 html files and add the new colors. An IFRAME works perfectly but ebay wont allow it in an auction.

example auction

Code: Select all

<script>
function clientSideInclude(id, url) {
  var req = false;
  // For Safari, Firefox, and other non-MS browsers
  if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
    try {
      req = new XMLHttpRequest();
    } catch (e) {
      req = false;
    }
  } else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
    // For Internet Explorer on Windows
    try {
      req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
    } catch (e) {
      try {
        req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
      } catch (e) {
        req = false;
      }
    }
  }
 var element = document.getElementById(id);
 if (!element) {
  alert("Bad id " + id +
   "passed to clientSideInclude." +
   "You need a div or span element " +
   "with this id in your page.");
  return;
 }
  if (req) {
    // Synchronous request, wait till we have it all
    req.open('GET', url, false);
    req.send(null);
    element.innerHTML = req.responseText;
  } else {
    element.innerHTML =
   "Sorry, your browser does not support " +
      "XMLHTTPRequest objects. This page requires " +
      "Internet Explorer 5 or better for Windows, " +
      "or Firefox for any system, or Safari. Other " +
      "compatible browsers may also exist.";
  }
}
</script>

discusses server side and client side. thinking you can only use clent side. and i think java is your only option

it would be stupid of ebay to let you use javascript ajax stuff to fetch data and spit it into an auction page or let you use an iframe because you could change the terms of an auction after someone placed a bid or purchased it. i seriously doubt they're dumb enough to allow javascript on their auction pages - if they are, i'll be amazed.
