    Pretty easy to do with jquery. You'll probably want to add a loader splash to improve UX.

    Code:
    $('.menuitem').click(function(){

    $('#midContent').load('/your/link/here.html');

    // or if your using a menu with links use this below
    // $('#midContent').load( $(this).attr('href')  );

    // add this too so that it doesn't fire the link
    return false;
});

      Hey thanks but it is not online yet, all I need to do is fig out how to make my link in the parent page open the child link into the middle of the parent page ie.

      click on ABOUT it would open www.mysite.com/about.html
      but I want it to open about.html inside the middle div/content area of my website.
