how to populate an HTML table cell with another HTML page?

How do I put the contents of a particular webpage into a cell of my HTML table? e.g. I want to show the main page of www.yahoo.com in a cell of my HTML table. How do I do this? Pls note that I don't want to show a link to the specified webpage.... I want the webpage content itself..... sort of a preview to a website in a cell.

Thanks.

    Using IFRAME you can display for example www.website.com into any place as follows:

    <table>

    <tr>

    <td><iframe src="http://www.website.com"/ width="500" height="300"></iframe></td>

    </tr>

    </table>

    Is important you specify the width and height or you may not see anything in some browsers.

    If using html or htm page you can use

    <IFRAME SRC="yourpage.html" WIDTH=700 HEIGHT=600></IFRAME>

    change the width and height to what you want

    or if you are using a php extension, you can use

    <?php include("yourpage.html"); ?>

    but you can't put Yahoo in your page, you have to ask them for permission first. You can only include your own other pages

    if you do it anyway, you might or you might not get in trouble, depends

    search engines won't see what you put in the iframe, but they will see what is included with php, incase you are interested in SEO

    you would have to make it an iframe and set the src of the iframe to the desired URL. You can dynamically change the src attribute via javascript if so desired.
