Hi,

Wanted to include ASP file in a div when a certain condition is passed in a javascript function using the innerHTML property.

Tried using the following but not working.

document.getElementById(“frame”).innerHTML=”<!–#include file=”/include/show.asp”–>”

Please suggest…

@ZABIMar 07.2012 — ? FYI ASP is a server side language and run on server side. while JavaScript runs on client side.

why dont you try AJAX ?

I tried including a HTML page. No change...

DOM elements are supported with JavaScript and AJAX is an extension of the same. Correct me if I'm wrong

@RodionGorkMar 08.2012 — ZABI means that you need to use ajax call in javascript which fetches text to be inserted from the server and when it is returned, you can place it into inner html. ASP scripts will not do since they are executed before browser gets the page and you could do with them nothing after page is loaded into browser (while javascript on contrary is working after loading).

Google for "ajax tutorial" and you in a few minutes will know what is it all about. Not too complicated trick, however.

Success!
