Hi,

I gather the term you’re looking for is called Transclusion (see 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transclusion).  

If it’s on the same wiki farm then ti’s achieved with the include macro as 
mentioned already.  

If on another wiki, this can be achieved using either the REST API to call 
XWiki or simply by using a URL.  

For example if you wish to get the HTML for the Playground’s Sandbox.WebHome 
page from the outside you’d call:  

http://playground.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/get/Sandbox/WebHome?outputSyntax=xhtml  

For more details, see 
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/URL+resolution

Thanks
-Vincent
