Hi I hate the expression -but- I am a newbie where includes are concerned. Now I do realise its not rocket science (:-) but I am having a real problem understanding this fault,
I create an an asp page (with graphic and text) and place it in a folder on the root I create an asppage and save it on the root I use <!--#include file="includes/header.asp" --> and it displays the graphic and text I create an asppage and save it in a folder and use <!--#include file="../includes/header.asp" --> and it displays graphic and text If I move the file one folder deeper and use <!--#include file="../../includes/header.asp" --> it doesnt display the graphic but does display the text ?? Regards Paddy |

Create your img tags relative to the root.
instead of
<img src="images/image.jpg" />
write
<img src="/images/image.jpg" />
Makes all the difference in the world.

Using include virtual instead of include file eliminates a lot of pathing problems when you use the include at different levels of your directory tree. ------------- 
Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |
