error when trying to incorporate server side includes

[matanzas]

SSI is foreign territory. Can someone explain the error I am getting please? All I am trying to do is include a menu in a bunch of pages.

Error including file:
Could not change directory to '/interview/'. Set execute permissions on this folder.

TIA

Boy, rather than studying css, html and php I should be going back to grade school and studying the last of the 3 R's... duh.
Thanks

re: the style tags, I don't see one outside of the head. Can you point it out?
Thx

this is fixable but first let me check what you actually want (by the way welcome back! ;-) )

you have the following core content elements:

1. table called page connections
2. some text content including Hi ... you will now start
3 another table called website design interview

do you want these :
3. in the left hand 20%
1. in the right hand 30%
2. in the middle of 3 and 1?

i'm not a fan of mixing table and css layouts but i think we can make this work.

 <!-- begin div left = left column -->
                    <div id="left">
                        <style type="text/css">
<!--
.h2 {font-size: 110%;
	border-bottom: 1px solid #CCD4E6;
	font-style: italic;
	font-weight:bold;
	}
.label{
	font-size:95%;
	font-weight: bold;
	color:#124272;
}
-->
</style>
<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="label">

This looms in the middle of the body tag. And the style part surely shouldn't.

Thanks Justin:
Have a look here now

vragabond was kimd enough to give me a math lesson.

It looks correct but would welcome a 2nd, 3rd, ... opinion

From everyting I read mixing css & tables is not the best idea but it's early days for me yet.

It wasn't so much that I was away as I have been struggling with trying to create an insert / update page. I installed MX Kollection as a DW extension which made creating registration & login functions a snap. I then wanted to pass the session on to subsequent pages and fell flat on my face. I dumped the extension and will try again from scrath and try to walk without the crutch.

I am sure I will be reposting once I get stuck in again
