What's the best and most secure way to take a fragment of html from one document and add it to another html document with Javascript? (lemmy.world)

I'm not new to programming, but I am somewhat new to web development and I'm trying to figure out the most preferred way of taking a standalone header from one html document and adding it to other html documents without code duplication. If possible I want to do this with Javascript so I can learn with more basic tools before expanding further.

I've researched this a fair bit, but the advice is a bit confusing since it either seems out of date or possibly not the most secure way of handling things. Is there a preferred way of doing something like this?

That makes sense. Thanks for the well thought out explanations. I am finding that I need to adjust my assumptions about how things work on the webdev side since it seems to work a bit differently than I expected. I'm still trying to feel out what I should and shouldn't be using for particular tasks, so posts like these are helpful.
