Show content from other website - html

Okay is it possible that when user opens ex. www.google.com he load content from another website but keeps the url same? All I want is when I open on my computer ex. www.google.com he loads me some other site. Or is it posibble that when I open site ex. www.google.com he instead of it loads the HTML code I wrote?

I am not sure what you're really asking, but if you control the source code of the site (so NOT www.google.com) you can embed content from another site via an iframe
<iframe src="http://www.othersite.com"></iframe>

If you can make the browser use an http proxy (transparent or not) that you control, you can serve whatever content you want.
Remember to not be evil though.

Since you're looking into using Greasemonkey to change some element on the page (as per your own comment on your question and #idrumgood's answer), I suggest taking a look at this:

It looks like this is exactly what you are looking for (Google is your friend, first result here...)

Linking to iframe pages

Is possible to link on sub page that is in iFrame?
So basically:
On www.domain.com/page I have just normal HTML page. And on that page I have iFrame where I get the content from www.anotherdomain.com.
Now on anotherdomain.com I have several subpages likes this:
www.anotherdomain.com/spage1
www.anotherdomain.com/spage2
etc.
Now the question is that is it possible to somehow link to one of these frames so that when user uses this link, it would go on one of these subpages. For example like this:
www.domain.com/page#spage2
so that then the www.domain.com/page would show on iframe the content from the page www.anotherdomain.com/spage1
If I have understood correctly, this is not possible but I just need some confirmation on this :)
Sorry for bad explanation. Ask more info if you didn't understand what Im trying to explain.
If I understand what you are asking for correctly:
When a visitor goes to domain.com/page#spage2 you want them to see a url of: www.domain.com/page with the content of anotherdomain.com/spage2
If this is correct, I don't think you can do this with just HTML. You would need either regex in a .htaccess file or with PHP taking advantage of the $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] call.

How can I make an iframe capture ONLY one element of a web page?

I'm trying to capture div#map-canvas from my site, www.RichBlocksPoorBlocks.com, to make an iframe that people can embed anywhere.
Here's my iframe
<iframe src="http://www.richblockspoorblocks.com#map-canvas" style="width:600px; height:400px;"></iframe>
It goes to div#map-canvas, but it also loads the rest of the page as well. I'd like that div to be the only thing in the iframe.
Is this possible with an iframe?
To achieve this, it would be easier to create a separate .php or .html document which contains only the parts that you want to show in the iframe and exclude everything else.
So, instead of the iframe pointing to "http://www.richblockspoorblocks.com#map-canvas", it would point to something like : "http://www.richblockspoorblocks.com/map-canvas.php".
This would be a very quick and efficient way of doing what you want, and doesn't require any outside libraries or javascript.
When you call http://www.richblockspoorblocks.com#map-canvas the hash will probably cause the browser to look for a corresponding <a name="foo">bar</a> so this won't work using an iFrame.
What I would recommend doing is writing a script which you call from your iFrame which accepts the name of the page fragment to load. I know using jQuery's $.load() you can call an element ID to load a page fragment, and I think it's also possible in PHP too...
You cannot use hash links in iframes.
You can and should use, few lines of you'r favorite server side language to create the specific content you want to render and then link to it. in that way, you'r server will send out to the end user only the desired data and also it saves bandwith and loading time.

Convert Site with messenger to work like facebook

Hello I'm creating a site at the moment (asp.net mvc) which has a div at the bottom side of the page that works as a messenger.
I would like to find a way to make the site work like facebook's chat. In other words, when a user clicks on a link on the site to load the content on the back however the messenger to stay in tact without loading again.
Will I have to change the site so every page is loaded with an ajax request? Also, I don't want to use iframes.
The only way to have elements to stay on screen from page to page without using iframes to use ajax requests, something like load() if you're uisng jQuery.
Most sites that do it use some variation of hashbangs, so a page can be loaded by directly entering it's url, rather than necessitating a path through other pages.
To do what you propose has fundamental implications to the structure of the entire site, so if this messenger box isn't anything more than a gimmick, I wouldn't bother. I'd even go so far as to say that if you're not sure how you'd do this one thing, you shouldn't be trying to build a site around it.
Well if you dont want your chat to disappear even for a moment with full site refresh, then yes, you have to change your page to ajax loading. It is not such a pain as it looks - for example use jquery to intercept all clicks on anchors, make ajax call to their href, and replace some "all-wrapping" placeholder div with the returned content.. Not very pretty usage of ajax, but it works, and your chat stays in place.

iframe to external sites

Is it legal to have an IFrame on a website which inside has an external website?
In an IFrame is it possible to only show a section of the src that isn't the top left of the site (for instance if there was a chart in the middle of a website, could u have just the chart in your Iframe, or at least start it centred there)
Is there any way to stop my IFrame from auto redirecting me to the external site
for 3: ie
<iframe src="http://fifa.com"></iframe>
Just sends me to fifa instead of actually showing that site in a frame.
Instead of using an iframe is it possible to copy the chart and source it back to where you got it from?
Fifa is probably using javascript to prevent you from placing the site in an iframe... and it's generally a pretty shady thing to do.
This depends on the rules of the external website. You should at least ask them for permission and only do it if they are OK with it (no replay does not mean they agree!)
No, an IFrame is like a new browser.
If the external site uses JavaScript to break out of frames, then the only way to prevent this is to disable JavaScript in your browser.
I guess it's legal, but it isn't decent.
Ah, so you only wanna show the scores i.e., I guess there should be a way, but again it's not decent, you just don't use such constructions, you just don't!
No! That's exactly the point of that redirect. The only way to do that will be with javascript disabled.

Embed a webclip

I am wondering if there's a way I can embed a webclip into a webpage, as in, I can have a portion of a webpage embedded as a widget into another page. I was thinking it might be possible someway though Mac OS X's Dashboard widgets, one can take a webclip and make a dashboard widget, as I hear that they are HTML based, and thus one could reverse-engineer one into simple HTML code. Kind of the reverse of what google does for gadgets. Any ideas? I'm open to any solutions.
Thanks.
The easy, html-based way is with an iframe. What this does is put an entire webpage within a box on your page. You don't have much flexibility with it.
You can also do it with javascript. JQuery makes it easy with their .load() method. Going this route, you can load a webpage with javascript, load specific tags within that page, or even modify the incoming code before displaying it.
Most basically:
$("#xxxx").load("url.html");
Where xxxx is the id of the html tag where you want the content to be loaded on your page (e.g. if you have <div id="xxxx">content will go here</div> in your HTML). See more details at: http://docs.jquery.com/Ajax/load.
If these don't suffice, the next step would be PHP (I doubt you'd need it, but if you'd like to, you car search for file_get_contents on php.net).
