I have a code.js
file which contains the following:
DivDialogHTML = function[]{
var mainDiv = document.createElement["div"];
mainDiv.id = "optin_settings_dialog";
mainDiv.className = "OptinDialog";
mainDiv.innerHTML = "Text";
}
The code to load the popup [dont know if it's all code, but to get the idea]:
DivDialogOverlayHTML = function[]{
var mainDiv = document.createElement["div"];
mainDiv.id = "optin_settings_overlay_dialog";
mainDiv.className = "OptinDialog";
return mainDiv;
}
renderOptinWindow = function[]{
var pageHead = document.getElementsByTagName["head"][0];
var pageBody = document.getElementsByTagName["body"][0];
if[ pageHead && pageBody ]{
pageBody.appendChild[ this.getDivDialogHTML[] ];
}
}
Instead of using the mainDiv.innerHTML = '
I'd like the mainDiv.innerHTML
to open another file [Dialog.html
].
How do I do that?

with Ajax. But why not using jQuery?
$['.selector'].load[url];
In your case you have to insert jQuery first like this in your
And than take your existing function and change it like this
DivDialogHTML = function[]{
var $mainDiv = jQuery["div"];
$mainDiv.attr['id', "optin_settings_dialog"];
$mainDiv.addClass["OptinDialog"];
/* $mainDiv.html["Text"]; */
$mainDiv.load['Dialog.html'];
}

Do you mean another window? If so, please take a look at window.open
window.open
After you create new window, you put its contents and display

if you don't want to use jQuery you can use an iframe
HTML
Javascript
document.getElementById["optin_settings_dialog"].src="Dialog.html";

- Use JavaScript
fetch[]
Method to Load an External HTML File - Use jQuery
load[]
Method to Load an External HTML File
Sometimes, we must load an external HTML file into another HTML file using JavaScript or jQuery, depending on project requirements. This tutorial exemplifies how to load an external HTML file using JavaScript and jQuery.
Use JavaScript fetch[]
Method to Load an External HTML File
HTML Code [home.html
]:
Home Page
This content is loaded from the home page
HTML Code [index.html
]:
Click to load content from home.html file
The content from Home Page will be displayed here
CSS Code [styles.css
]:
div{
border: 2px solid rgb[255, 0, 0];
width: fit-content;
margin: 5px;
padding: 2px 20px;
cursor: pointer;
}
button{
margin: 5px;
padding: 2px 20px;
}
p{
font-size: 14px;
}
JavaScript Code [script.js
]:
function loadHTML[]{
fetch['home.html']
.then[response=> response.text[]]
.then[text=> document.getElementById['homePage'].innerHTML = text];
}
Output:
The
fetch[]
function requests the server to load data on various web pages.
We use the fetch[]
function to fetch the home.html
file from localhost. The fetch[]
method returns a Promise
.
Further, the Response
interface’s text[]
method is used, which accepts the Response
stream, reads it and returns a Promise
which solves with the String
. Remember, the Response
is decoded by using UTF-8.
After that, we get the element whose id is homePage
by using getElementById[]
method and replace its inner HTML via .innerHTML
property with the text
.
Use jQuery load[]
Method to Load an External HTML File
HTML Code [home.html
]:
Home Page
This content is loaded from the home page
HTML Code [index.html
]:
Home Page
Click to load content from home.html file
CSS Code [styles.css
]:
div{
border: 2px solid rgb[255, 0, 0];
width: fit-content;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 2px 20px;
cursor: pointer;
}
p{
font-size: 14px;
}
JavaScript Code [script.js
]:
$[document].ready[function [] {
$['#homePage'].click[function [] {
$[this].load['home.html'];
}];
}];
Output:
The ready[]
method examines whether the file is completely ready or not. This event only occurs when Document Object Model has been fully loaded.
The load[]
method loads the information [data] from the server and gets the data returned by the server into the specified element.
We use the ready[]
method to ensure that the DOM is fully
ready before further operations. The home.html
file will be loaded using the load[]
method.
