Question with include file

[EdRev]

I have an asp page that has an include file from another sub-directory.

When I include the whole path name (i.e\dir\subdir1\incfile.asp) on this asp, I got an error message that says the include file cannot start with '\'.If I remove the '\', the page cannot find the file.

The asp page's directory is \dir\subdir2\asppage.asp.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

put the path as :

"../subdir2/incfile.asp"


../ takes you back a directory
you should not use \ , this is for local files, when specifying dir structure on the web use /
