Here we go with dynamic includes again...

Here's a [ search ] to help you out.

In short, the includes are processed prior to other script so in theory it is impossible to make them dynamic. However, there are ways "around" it.

Sorry, may be I'm confusing everyone here.
Actually, I'm not talking about editing this forum.
So, the file is actually not in the "includes" folder.

I was just wonder how would I write the coding. Something like these? (this page is not in the includes folder)

If idCategory="1" then
   <!--#include file="header1.asp"-->
end if

If idCatgory="2" then
   <!--#include file="header2.asp"--> 
end if

You are not trying to edit the forums, but then you say you want to do that? Now I'm confused, so do you want or do you not want to edit the forums and make your (If Cat...) change?

Any way, if you want to make the change, the file you want to edit is default.asp in your root.

Your approach will not work, search these forums for dynamic includes and read a bit about it to find out why.

The files I'm trying to modify is actually from another asp software.
Sorry for the confusing.

May be I don't exactly know what I'm talking about.. but this is want I want to achieve.  See how every category has different header? that is what I want.

elseif CatID = 1 then

<!--#include file="filename"-->
