What is it?: This property inserts another document into the current document, replacing the current element's content. Any elements or CSS properties applied to or inherited by the current element are applied to the inserted content as well.

This property is similar in effect to the HTML 4.0 IFRAME element which Netscape 4.0 does NOT support.

Allowed Values
[URL]
[N4-4.x]: Type: Explicit; Description:
An absolute or relative URL pointing to a document. If rendering of the document is not possible by the browser, it should be ignored and the regular element content be displayed instead.

Example: Ext/Doc:
div {
     position: absolute;
     top: 100px; left: 300px;
     width: 200px; height: 200px;
     border: thin solid black;
     include-source: url("http://www.example.com/testpage.htm");
     }

Browser Peculiarities

Netscape

4.x:
- I originally also had an example here for using this property in-line, but an alert reader pointed out that using 'include-source' in-line with the STYLE attribute appears to have NO effect. Using the property referenced by an external or embedded style sheet DOES appear to work fine.
- This property does not apply to list items (LI/DT/DD), INPUT, IMG and other replaced elements.
- Applying this property to SELECT and TEXTAREA elements replaces the content, but also renders empty form controls.
- Applying this property will expand the dimensions of the element's rendering box unless the 'width' property is set.
