Instead of frames, you could use JavaScript client-side includes to assemble pages on-the-fly on the client side. This requires JavaScript 1.1-capable browsers.

See <http://www.spinwardstars.com/frontier/how/jsi/>.


Or, of course, you could use Server-Side Includes (SSI) to do the assembly on the server side, but still on-the-fly. I don't think the included chunks have to be from the same server. Whether or no, you could use a CGI to get them from anywhere. This would be the most compatible, as the browser would not have to do any page assembly.
