Showing Section of a Page From One Site to Another

    Hi,
    I’m working on a small information website for my sales and support company.

    Our Parent Company has a main website for the world wide business, with a Product page showing the complete product line.

    My Manager said he wants our website to show the Product line from our Parent company’s website, but wants the Product list to appear like it’s on our website.

    He does not want the header or side bars to show up from our Parent company's website. He just wants the Product line to appear like it is on our own page on our website.

    The only way I’ve come up with is using iframes, but the entire web page shows up, which does not work for what they are looking to do and it looks pretty bad.

    Is this possible to do, or should I just link to our parent company product page and have that product page open into a new tab etc ?

    Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    If this is within the same company, can't you just get access to the database directly, and pull the information you need from there? That way it would look however you want it to look, doesn't have to look anything like what's on the parent company site if that site clash with yours, etc.
    Other way to do it is using cURL to fetch data from the website in question and parse that on your end.
