View Full Version : Javascript reference segments - issues?

I am utilising separate Javascript segments to compile pages, basically replicating frame functionality. This seems an excellent method to avoid doubling up on data in multiple pages, but I have not noticed many developers using this function.

An example is http://www.arts.vic.gov.au/arts/funding/programs/artistsinschools.htm

Are there any problems creating pages this way, ie incompatibilities etc? I suspect there could be accessibility issues and this is something I'll have to address in the future.

Any comments would be appreciated.

This method works fine assuming the user has Javascript enabled, but you can't rely on this condiiton. Server-side includes would be much more appropriate for such an implementation.
