The title speaks for itself. I know I can include text, images and links using php include, however, I'm curious to know whether there are any other ways of doing that. For some reason I don't like too many 'p's.
Thanks in advance.

You can use iframes, but I don't think they work well across browsers. Guess you could also use javascript to write content into the specific area you define.

Personally, I think iframes would be the best choice, but as Jacorre said, they don't work on *all* browsers (though on my site they work on the major 2: IE and FF).

Ajax is an ideal option as jacorre touched on (using javascript to write data).

The catch is, a lot of people disable JS, thus disabling AJAX. Frames are less problematic, so more people will use those. Personally, i'd stick with php though.

A lot of people think frames are annoying. That's why "iframes" are so good. They are like a window in the page, so they scroll with the page. But PHP includes are a good way.

I cant stand iframes or frames full stop....Dunno about anyone else...They really are redundant to modern designing.

frames if used correctly can easily go un noticed.
Just use <? include php... ... i have several of these placed on one of my pages, it loads extremely fast and works perfectly in all browsers.

Hey!
My broach on the subject is having lots of pages, I find, if organized is an advantage. But because you don't like many pages, you could make on page that has an if statement telling what to put then include that in your index and you've only got two pages.
Example
Hope this helps,

else if ($action == "contact"){
echo 'Welcome to the contact page';
}

<HTML>
<?
//index page
include('portal.php');
?>
