Since we are importing html structure into the document, I don't think CSS
would be the place for it as it concerns itself with presentation. Though
I have been needing a client-side include mechanism. Using <iframe> isn't
what I need because it creates a new instance of a window object and has a
whole new tree. What I want is a container that imports a file on the
client side, but stays within that document's object structure.
<object type="text/html"> always seemed to me to be a good candidate to me
since it was a container already, and had a source (data="foo.html")
attribute already. But in the browser that this works in (IE4) this
creates a new instance of a window just like <iframe>.
