XInclude

XInclude is a generic mechanism for merging XML documents, by writing inclusion tags in the "main" document to automatically include other documents or parts thereof. The resulting document becomes a single composite XML Information Set. The XInclude mechanism can be used to incorporate content from either XML files or non-XML text files. XInclude is not natively supported in Web browsers, but may be partially achieved by using some extra JavaScript code.
