I was going to say cut-n-paste your blurb... [so you get keywords]
But then it occurred to me that maybe doing cut and paste from webpage A to webpage B is a missing feature.
I dont think microformats or frames answer this need well.
It seems the most basic feature of a web mashup, so why dont we see this as a trivial standard?
<div src=url id=div_id />
Ive used plone before as a companywide repo for project docs, but one feature I wanted was to do this for subsections of a page. This would have solved that problem.
- _pius 17y agoHow would this differ from iframes?
- gord 17y agoWithout knowing exactly why, my feeling is iframes are broken. If not.. why arent iframes used in say yahoo and google customisable home page mashups? Differences : granularity - share one div, not whole page scope - how should javascript interact between the inclusion and the whole page? [ Im not sure.. this wasn't on the radar when iframes were designed I guess ]
