I want to display a web page with in a web page. Now, inevitably, the question comes "Why would you want to do that?" Or "Just post a simple <a herf =""> whatever link. Well, I'm in charge of designing the web site, and only do what the client/customer wants. To answer the question on a more practical basis, the web site has user profiles and at the bottom of their profile, the customer wants the web site for taht user's sponsor displayed.
I'm not sure if this is something that HTML can handle or if I need to just sift through JavaScript or PHP manuals to find the answer, but I thought I'd ask the gurus here. If you can help, please do or at least point me to a link taht will have the answer. Thanks!

Just use a frameset which can be done in HTML
You will have to decide where on the page you are going to display it
For example:-
<frameset id="framain" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" rows="152,*">
<frame src="heading.htm" name"heading" id="heading" scrolling="no"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"
framespacing="0" frameborder="0">

<frameset id="frabody" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" cols="160,*">
<frame src="menu.htm" name="menu" id="menu" noresize="yes" scrolling="no"
marginheight="10" marginwidth="0"
framespacing="0" frameborder="0">

<frame class="fbody" src="mainpage.htm" name="body" id="body" noresize="yes" scrolling="yes"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"
framespacing="0" frameborder="0">

</frameset>
</frameset>

In case anyone new isn't aware of it, this technique can also
be used to include a call to SSI (for example, to display a hits
count or whatever) within an HTML page which isn't normally
parsed to detect comments as possible #exec calls.
-
Just link the frame to another .shtml file on your server which
contains the call to the counter, and the counter will display
inside the inline frame.
-
This saves having to annoy the webmaster at your host by
insisting that all .html is parsed for SSI's ! !
