I have a seperate app, running along site an existing EE site (developed by someone else). Now i’m trying to share some common elements like a particular header and footer from the EE site with my app. As the headers has some dyanmic information in it - i’m looking for an easy way of pulling the relevant bit into my app without having to resort to using a static html view file…

anyone have any experience with similar that could give me some tips as to how to achieve this.

+1 for this. I’m looking to do something similar as well.

What type of dynamic information are you looking at? You can always do a PHP include of the template file as you would view it in a browser (eg. include(‘www.domain.com/embeds/header’);) I’ve done this when trying to pull in stuff for Word press templates and it works well.
