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.
