Sorry if title is not too clear but I think it's about right. NEhow, what I would like to do is a bit like (well is to a certain extent) building a widget with JQuery (pref), PHP & CSS.
What I would really like to happen is for a "member" of my site to simply paste 2 lines of code in their HTML to load the widget. Something like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/script.js"></script>
Then to display the widget something like this <div id="displaywidget"></div>
OK that bit is "easy" and ok. But how do I include JQuery or "something" to generate the widget in script.js
What I mean is "displaywidget" - the ID of the widget div will be the name of a php file on my server so essentially script.js will need to load displaywidget.php into the div displaywidget.
I think I use document.getElementById('displaywidget')
to get the div but how do I then "write/insert/load" displaywidget.php inside the div?
Thinking as I write "pure" java can do "most of what I want i.e. document.getElementById('displaywidget')
, BUT I would prefer to also "include" Jquery.js as I would like some aspects of the widget to use JQuery. Example being the JQuery UI date function.
Sorry if I am rambling a bit but trying to think as I go along. My "real" problem is I am not too sure on "pure" javascript i.e. getting the div to display/load displaywidget.php
Suggestions please. (Oh if I am barking up the wrong tree please feel free to tell me - nicely:) )
Thanks in advance
