I think you have to rename your .htm pages to .shtml

will check this though

...or you could rename it with the asp-suffix. It will accept pages without asp-content. It might have a slight impact on performance, though... This is not a bug - it's an undocumented feature...

You might be able to fake it, by pointing your htmlfiles to the asp-dll using an ISAPI-filter. This is not a bug - it's an undocumented feature...

To do such a simple task i have to go thru the thing which i always feared a complex thing to do isn't it ISAPI-filter i have read and see the code of it but its so hard to understand

I used .shtml and it worked fine. It uses server side includes - SSI, and as long as you are working on a server, you will be able to see all your includes. I have IIS on my system, and it works just great.

Hope that helps.

Don't think that just because a web page has the extension .html that the server is handling it as "simple" html. I worked for a company that modified the server's file type handling so that the .html extension was actually processed as a .jsp.

You can do almost anything if you can control the way the files are processed. If you have access to the server, you could make .html be processed like .asp files. Again, there would be a performance hit like Jonax mentioned, but it would be possible.

Don't think that because others can do something, then it must be simple. There may be a lot of odd configurations and proprietary code behind the scenes. Einstein47
