Yes, there is more than one way to do it. However, it's important to note that the end result is not the same. If you do a Cheetah #include directive (my suggestion, and what the Seasons skin does), the page is included *at template processing time*. You'll end up with a single HTML page with all the content.
By contrast, your approach includes the file *at runtime* in the client. It will involve an extra HTTP fetch to get the second HTML file. -tk On Thu, Dec 20, 2018 at 3:42 PM Colin Larsen <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok found it solution - sorry Pat, answering my own question but other may > be interested :) > > First I created a tmpl file with the tags I wanted (I called it > stationinfo.html.tmpl) and saved that in the skins/Belchertown directory > > I then edited skin.conf to include the new tmpl file, just below the > [[[about]]] I added > > [[[stationinfo]]] > > template = stationinfo.html.tmpl > > This generated my html file in the web root directory > > I then used this script that I found in my inc file > > <html> > <head> > <script src="jquery.js"></script> > <script> > $(function(){ > $("#includedContent").load("http://41south.net.nz/stationinfo.html"); > }); > </script> > </head> > > <body> > <div id="includedContent"></div> > </body> </html> > > > Voila - I have the information in the inc section . :) > > I'm sure there are some grammatical errors here so far as html goes, but > it works > > Cheers > Colin > > On Friday, 21 December 2018 12:27:14 UTC+13, Pat wrote: >> >> Hmm.
