Maybe, if you cant find a solution for what you are doing, you may try a
different approach.

What do you want to achieve from this? You want to contents of a page
within your parent page? You want to be able to reuse that content? Maybe
you can get this content into your pages by including it with some server
side language tools (PHP, ASP, Server side inlcudes, etc).

Maybe?
