I have files named top_menu.inc and left_menu.inc so that to reduce the
work when I change the navigation structure of my website. I am
including top_menu.inc file as <!--#include file="top_menu.inc"--> but contents of this file are not displaying on the page in which it is inserted. If there is a missing relative or virtual path of file, please tell me how can I give virtual or relative path. Thanx ------------- The Judgement Day |

this is a cut and past so should work. <!--#include file="functions/functions_format_post.asp" --> the only other thing i can think is .. have you got SSI enabled on your host. should have but some hosts allow you to disable them. |

Ok, but I am using it on my local server, with Win 2000 Professional
and IIS 5. Would you pls tell me how can I check SSI on my local system.

I use include virtual instead of include file
<!--#include virtual="/somedirectory/top_menu.inc"-->
Where the first / is the root directory. That way I can use the same include in any subdirectory without having to change the relative file path. ------------- 
Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |

Just a thought, but make sure you are not tring to using the 'include' statement within the asp brackets : <% %> Nathan ------------- www.agni.gr Travel To Greece Guide |
