How to Embed HTML in Your Page Without iFrame or Server Side Code
The Internet has become the primary platform for sharing ideas, information, products and promotions. The number of websites created in the last decade makes it necessary to have a well-designed and easy-to-update site that stands out. Embedding HTML is one method of logical design that helps keep your site uniform and organized. If your server does not allow the use of Server Side Includes (SSI) and you prefer not to use inline frames (iFrames), you can still embed code into your page for easy updating.
