Tony Newbie     Happy Holidays Everyone OK. Here's the picture. I have design a couple of sites in my time and in my designs made use of 'includes' for page headers / footers and menu bars. This is my first ebook and wanted to apply the same format to my pages. I understand activlink but can we apply this logic to include html files. This is probably not the first time you have been asked this but we have to start some where. The help files are good to get you started but has anyone written a manual. Details of page builds using the talked about features. Thanks for your help.

In fact, I recently tested my first SSI on my Web server with much success. My question is this... would this apply to SSI as well? Like I said, I am new to this because all my previous work has involved nothing more than plain ol' HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Anyway, I've heard about SSI in the past, but never really investigated it until now. Plus, I stumbled upon information regarding this topic just a few days ago, tried a sample configuration on my host's Webserver, and it worked. If I can at least achieve similar results in Activ E-Book, that would cut down even more time for me.

I will eventually try using the Pre-Processor soon, when time permits. If I have any further questions, I'll be sure to post them them here.

I tried to name the file in the include directory paypal.html and paypal (donatenag.html and donate). Both does not work. ==== I found it, it is not HTML-Fragment, it is Compile time include HTML-Fragment, than it asks for the file location, .... The variable I type as: [={paypal}] or [={paypal.html}] (Edited by Wiplinger at 12:48 am on Sep. 25, 2002) ----- Internet Consultant http://www.elmit.com +886 915 653-452 Total Posts: 26 | Joined Sep. 2002 | Posted on: 4:52 pm on Sep. 23, 2002 | IP
