The easiest way to fetch another page and insert it into the DOM is by
using load():
$('body').load('page.htm');
injects the contents of page.htm into <body>. You can also use
selectors in the url if you only want to fetch parts of the page:
$('body').load('page.html #someelement')
injects only the element with id 'somelement' from page.htm. Check out
the jquery documentation for load() here:

Did that answer your question?
