Hello Everyone,

The issue: I have created a page that loads two other pages into div’s at the press of a button, and then removes them on another press

Both these pages contain JavaScript. On one of the pages, the JavaScript fires when the page is loaded to fill out values pulled from a database.

The pages are loaded using a simple Ajax call, that puts the contents in the div.

The problem: obviously loading pages this way means I can’t use ‘document.load’ to fire the JavaScript. I’m also finding that none of the scripts are loaded either.

I have a solution that can load the JavaScript after completion of the document.load, but for some reason it’s not detecting the global variables with the initial Json data in it.

Both pages work individually.

The question:

  1. How do I get this to work?
  2. Is there a better (preferably non-iframe) way of doing this?
  3. Why, when the JavaScript is loaded manually, is it seeing the global Json values as ‘not yet defined’?

Happy to offer any other information needed.

Thanks in advance

    You want two web pages to load inside a third encompassing web page?

    You are describing the use case for the iframe element.

    Edit: markdown support not the greatest.

      Yes,

      I’m aware it’s a use case for an iframe. However, I’m looking for a way to do it without an iframe. Most of the logic is there, just that there are these anomolies with the JavaScript variables.
