problem with includes

[MinnisotaFreezing]

Can anyone help me with this?

This is one file(index.aspx):

<!-- #include file = &quot;test.aspx&quot; -->
Chris
Response.Write(Name)

This is the other file(test.aspx)
<%
Response.Write (&quot;Test&quot
Name = &quot;Paul&quot;
%>

When I load index.aspx all I see is Chris.

However, when I run this on my test server, it works like I would guess, and shows Test Chris and Paul.

I am absolutly certain the files are in the same directory, so they should work. I don't have access to the server, but other pages in the parent directory have includes in them, so I assume includes are turned &quot;on&quot;

Any ideas or hints are appriciated.

Are index.aspx and test.aspx in the same folder? That is the only way your code will work. If they are in different folders you need to modify your <!-- #include > element

Hmm, I'm having a similar problem, is there anything that can prevent this from working (assuming spelling and file locations are correct) other than the server not supporting SSI ?

i think the includes are done the same way, but in regards to programming in aspx i believe if it's a resource/code component of the aspx it should be includeded via

<%@ Page Language=&quot;vb&quot; AutoEventWireup=&quot;false&quot; Codebehind=&quot;index.aspx.vb&quot; Inherits=&quot;WebApplication1.WebForm1&quot;%>

along those lines

also the code supplied i'm assuming is not copy pasted, but if it is, you seem to have your include within the <% %> tags

Thanks for fast responses, I'm positive the files are in the same folder, and my include is outside of the <% %>, that was a sloppy post on my part.

This is kind of what I am thinking. Is it possible for SSI to be turned on for certain folders only? Also, SSI should work if aspx is being parsed, it should be parsed as an include, right?

Thanks again

You could test whether SSI was enabled or not by changing the line in the main page to look for a file that you know doesn't exist:

<!-- #include file=&quot;xyz.abc&quot; -->

If SSI is enabled you should get an error saying it couldn't find the file. If it's not enabled, the page will just load normally with no errors (but with nothing included obviously!)
