<p>Use the <a href="../pi/dbhtml-include_href.html"><code class="sgmltag-xmlpi"><?dbhtml-include href?></code></a> PI anywhere in a
document to cause the contents of the file referenced by the
<code class="code">href</code> pseudo-attribute to be copied/inserted “as
is” into your HTML output at the point in document order
where the PI occurs in the source.</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3>
<p>The referenced file may contain plain text (as long as
it is “wrapped” in an <code class="sgmltag-element">html</code> element — see the
note below) or markup in any arbitrary vocabulary,
including HTML — but it must conform to XML
well-formedness constraints (because the feature in XSLT
1.0 for opening external files, the
<code class="function">document()</code> function, can only handle
files that meet XML well-formedness constraints).</p>
<p>Among other things, XML well-formedness constraints
require a document to have <span class="emphasis"><em>a single root
element</em></span>. So if the content you want to
include is plain text or is markup that does
<span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> have a single root element,
<span class="strong"><strong>wrap the content in an
<code class="sgmltag-element">html</code> element</strong></span>. The stylesheets will
strip out that surrounding <code class="sgmltag-element">html</code> “wrapper” when
they find it, leaving just the content you want to
insert.</p>
