You need to cut tables in half.

Say you have a table that you want the forum to be in the middle of then you would place the opening part in the header:-

<table>
<tr>
<td>

Then the closing tags for that table in the footer:-

</td>
</tr>
</table>

It's useful to learn how to do this as there are many things on the web like payment systems, asp apps, etc. that use this type of system to intergrate pages into sites.

Just one more thing how does the forum know to go in the header.asp page? Where is the code that does this?

Excuse my ignorance, but what am SSI?

SSI stands for Server Side Include. To do this short!

Maybe you have an www-page with a menu at the left. You have a lot of pages and to put that menu on all pages could take some time, special when you have to update the menu. You must do the changing on every pages, it takes time and it´s easy that something goes wrong.

So, put your menu in a separate file/page and then just include it to every pages you want the menu to appear. When you have to change something, just do the changing in the included file and it changes on every sites.

Your server must support ASP-pages (dynamical) to use SSI.

I hope that you understand my english. If you want I can do a little SSI-demo and send it to you...
