Including Files

[marshalsea]

I know this is possible in ASP pages, but wondered if it was possible in standard HTML/DHTML.<br><br>I have a Contents.inc file, which contains links to other pages on my site.<br><br>In ASP I can easily do this via:<br>&lt;!-- #include file=&quot;Contents.inc&quot; --&gt;<br><br>Unfortunately, for me, HTML files do not recognise this, and don't do anything...<br><br>So any ideas chaps and chappesses?? <p>Ben Marshalsea<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

palbano, changing the filename to .ASP is not a one-time-fix-all solution. It depends on your server. Any browser can understand ASP now, but not all servers will deliver them properly.<br><br>Some servers prefer you to rename the file to .shtml ... Some servers don't allow SSI (many free homepage providers don't allow it, for example). So it really depends on what server you're on; where are you hosting your page? <p>Liam Morley<br><a href=mailto:lmorley@wpi.edu>lmorley@wpi.edu</a><br><a href=

NO WAY! Server side solutions are server dependant! Man why didn't someone tell me?<br><br>;o)<br><br>-pete

Yeah it helps to rename it to .shtml, or .stm.<br><br>Either of the two will work.<br><br><br>-Vic
