At client side there is only JS, not an easy approach for my stated goal. I do see some benefits here, although small. Maybe i am not realising what you had in mind. 1. If you want to replace big chunks of information, i dare ask *why* would you want to display it twice (or more times) on the same page? If its not on the same page, i dare ask why you would want it replaced. 2. If its a small amount of information, i don't see any benefits regarding bandwith, and not really regarding writing it / maintenancing it. Would you provide a more concrete example of what you had in mind? Maybe we can find some better solutions. **** As a side note. I'm not trying to ditch your ideea, there *may* be some valid cicumstances in using it, but i fail to see where and why. It sort of reminds me of the ideea of using variables into CSS, something along these lines http://meiert.com/en/blog/20080207/selector-variables/ -- Andrei Eftimie +40 766 745 235 Web Developer http://www.designpunct.ro http://www.eftimie.com
