seeing part of external page in my page
Hi,
I want to see a table which is on an another site in my page. It works pretty good with Netscape by using the layer tag with the clip attribute, but I can't find the way to do the same thing with IE : the div tag can't load a page, the iframe can't clip an area of the page...
So any help is welcome !

there should be a cross-browser inner html solution for this.
Will go off and have a look and re post....
I take it you have a static site, because obviously if you are using asp or php or something you could achieve this quite easily.
could you further clarify your problem? You have had 15 views of this question, without reply, which is pretty high.

You might be able to use JavaScript to do this, although SSI won't work. Maybe if you provide a link to where you are trying to do this, we can help you better. Welcome to TWF!

The problem is that I don't have the control of the external page (it's provided by a partner site).
The code I use in NS is
<layer src="http://www.anothersite/thepage.htm
left="50" top="75" clip="150,360,480,500"></layer>
I'll try to do this with an applet which parse the html code of the page and display the table the way I want.
But if anyone has a better solution with html solution ...

Can you get your partner to put the shared content into a .js file on their server? They could use document.write() to print the stuff out. Then you could just link to that .js file and have the same content.

If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.

That could be great, but the page of my partner is dynamic (jsp) so I can't link to a static file.
