Multiple documents in a single webpage

Hi all,

We have a webpage with a button that, when pressed, loads a document,
spreadsheet or image into a dialog that's positioned at the bottom of
the DOM. So we effectively have two items of content residing on the
same webpage.

Currently there's nothing to distinguish the new content from the
existing apart from an H1 heading and a div that looks visually like a
draggable non-modal dialog box.

I'd really appreciate your thoughts on the best way to structurally
present the new content so it's distinguishable as a separate entity
from what was already on the page.

Thanks as always, Lynn
