As a starter, don't load pages into a <div>, load them into an
<iframe>
There's a technique called AJAX that is increasingly popular. It loads
XML content into a JavaScript object (program code, not HTML) and then
lets you manipulate it. You could then save such content (or part of
it) into a <div>.
However AJAX only works with XML, not with HTML. The XmlHttpRequest
and similar objects only load well-formed XML (which might be XHTML)
and not non-XML HTML. If you're working with this, then you still
need to use an <iframe> (which can be invisible) as a dynamic load
container and then you can manipulate its contents. This could
include writing that content into a <div>.
