Option Explicit Workaround For Includes
I have a website with many pages where some pages use option explicit in the pages and some do not. I am trying to add a footer include file to be added to the end of every page... and the include footer is going to have some ASP code that checks a table in our database based on whether or not it finds a value in a page variable in the page that called the include footer file.
in some cases... there will be no varible on the calling page... in those cases the footer has code that will goto the database and update somthing there. In other cases the varibles will be hard coded defined with values.
My problem is that the include file (the footer file) needs to check for those varibles... and I have to make sure I DIM the varible before checking it... but if it was previsously dimed in the main page i will get a redim error... and on the pages where there is an option explicit call... I can dim the varible name in the include. Code:

I am using option explicit ASP and in one of my pages if I dim any variable (or so it seems), it cries "name redefined". If I take out the variable, it cries "variable undefined". I had about 10 variables defined and it told me each one was being redefined until I took them all out, and then it told me that it didn't know what my variables were! Sheesh! They are not reserved words (they were CommandArray, linksx, etc). Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Option Explicit does not work anymore.(?)
If you put <%option explicit%> at the top of your pages (direktly after
the language declaration) you should get an error for each undeclared
variable. This does not happen, but undeclare variables lead to some odd
results.

I had an asp page with lots of functions and procedures plus the actual transitional code for the page itself. This worked perfectly but now that I've finished the page and put all the functions and sub routines in an include file I have a problem. Code:

I'm trying to set up a Windows 2003 server using ASP, and I am find ASP
pages just STOP as if I had called Response.End whenever an undeclared
variable is found. If I turn off Option Explicit, it doesn't happen.
Clearly I can Dim the variable to solve the problem (I mention this in case
some smartaleck decided to propose it as the solution), but it is making
finding undeclared variables very hard! Anyone have any idea what I've
done wrong in my configuration?

I have a folder structure that looks something like this.
root
->inc
->files
->system
->->area
->->group
->->->Layer3
etc.
I want to add a include file from the original folder level from the "inc" folder.
The file of where the include will be used is located within the folder named Layer3 folder.
How do I add in the include referencing the file.
Do i just use".."
For every folder level i want to go up to gain access to the file?
Do i just continue to add ".."?

My web designer created my site with a header include or something to that effect. My question is this: How do I change each page title to what I would like for SEO purposes? When I put the desired title onto each page, my includes/header.asp file "overwrites" the desired title; thus, every static page has the same title. Creating separate include files would work but would take forever. I have even tried leaving the title tag blank in the includes.asp file and add the desired title to each static page, but the title tag doesn't end up in the <head>, just the <body> tag.

I've a big include asp file with a lot of function and subs, some of them with a long html code embebed, in this intranet and I'm not sure if I should break it in a several include files in order to improve the performance.
My question is:
leave it as it is because all that code runs into memory only once , say at log in, or
break it in several others, in order to access the code that really is to be accessed.

I have a table that I am using as a main skeleton for all my pages to use. The problems is that I want other pages to be inserted into a specific cell.
I have a skeleton.asp with 2 rows and 2 columns. I will create pages like company.asp which will have just text in them and they will use the include tag and include the skeleton.asp.
The problem is that I want the text only page to be inserted into the lower right cell on the table in the skeleton.asp. I have seen it done many times but I cannot remember what the tag was that you put in the cell to put the include contents there.

I have a page that uses includes.It has 1 include to bring in a header, 1 for the menu, and then there is a content area.
This content area I need to change.So, for example, the link would be index.asp page=aPage.asp and it would load my page that page witht the header and menu and for the content area include aPage.asp.
What is the script I can do this with. I tried simply using Response.Write and then just righting the <! #include --> tag with the right page in there, but it just writes that without parsing it and including that page.

I have an include, which is used as the header of my site, that has a bit of CSS coding in it. The CSS code along with an unordered list creates an expandable menu. The include works great when you view it at its URL, but the menu doesn't expand when a person has to access dynamic pages.
I have found out that the problem is that when the file is included the code is not inside the <head> tags, so thus the menu doesn't perform, or expand. Is there any snippet of code that could automatically put the CSS inside the <head> tags?

Can someone comment on the use of SSIs? Do these place a lot of strain on the server?
Also, are "virtual" includes or "file" include directives more efficient?

I have a main file (asp), from which I include 2 different asp files. The second included asp file references an array element deefined and populated in the first include asp file. However, the array value is not being resolved in the second include.
This is not on a Windows server, but rather a UNIX server. However, the host provider claims ASP and SSI support.

saddled with using an <IFRAME> area on a classic asp page from the designer, so I'm trying to find out the following.
on that page I usually use the <IFRAME> to hold a simple HTML page, that the client will have access to from my CMS program so they can make edits, updates etc.
but, one page has a search functionality, written in classic ASP and using MS-Access dbase to find members of the association etc.
when I put the asp search page inside the <IFRAME> src , it wont show? ie --
<iframe src="findlawyer.asp" frameborder="No" width="756" height="427" id="iFrame" vspace="10">
-- should mean that the page findlawyer.asp should show up inside the holding ASP page (called simply find.asp)
why? when I look at the findlawyer.asp page online it shows up perfectly and works perfectly too....yet inside the <IFRAME> it refuses to show up???

Is there any way to dynamically generate an include file based on a variable passed to the asp page via a url ?- so for example:
Person x clicks on a url - that ur directs them to template.asp (template.asp has no code in it other than page title etc and <!--#include file="<%variable%>" --> )
Once in template.asp the page loads the include file that is relevant to the companies website that the link was clicked from.
In that include file will be the correct form and stylesheet setting for that company.
What we are trying to do is achieve a global template file which multiple customers can direct peo[ple through and all the data is therefore stored in one central repository.
The file displayed when they reach template.asp will depend on the url they clicked. Basically how can i get the url to pass the variable which the include file will then load??

I need to include an .asp file into another .asp at runtime, but I need to do it based either on data returned from a dB or from the querystring. Since Server Side Includes happen before any script code is processed I can't accomplish this task using SSIs. At least not that I'm aware of.
The intent is to get a custom style sheet and/or theme design template based on who the user is or which site their visiting e.g. site1.domain.com has a default template of clouds and site2.domain.com has a default template of water, but both may be set by the user to their template choice.

I have an index page (home.asp) that calls several includes to create the whole page (ie side.asp, top.asp, body.asp). If I externally refer to stylesheets in my homepage, they don't seem to transition into my includes. I can put a <head> on each of my includes and put the internal CSS there. This works, but doesn't seem right, and looks funny in source code seeing multiple <head> tags.
recommend a good tutorial for intermediate CSS? I read Yahoo's source code and I don't understand a lot of what they're doing there... I feel like I'm just a few steps behind understanding that.

I tried doing an include over multiple sites but have read a lot about it and see that this doesn't work.What should I do?

Is there a way to include a large list (.html page) in a table and force a scrollbar instead of resizing the cell to fit the entire list? I'm wondering because I have a navbar on the left that links to different parts of the list (months), and I would like it to stay on the screen, even when scrolling down near the bottom.

On one of my asp sites I want to use virtual includes so that it will work the same locally for testing as on the server.
the site is on IIS on WinXP Professional, a folder under the main site. I made it a virtual directory. However if I put:
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/footer.asp"-->
it doesn't work, I still have to put
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/site_folder/footer.asp"-->
how can I make it work like the document root? Is there a URL I should be using as opposed to localhost/site_folder/ ?

I have a menu I want to include on every page but may update at a later stage so it's easier to use an include. The menu is just a basic html table, no vbscript contained within it. The site is a mixture of static page and ASPs, should I use #include file ="menu.htm" or #include file="menu.asp"?
Also if I have a .htm page, can it have an #include file="menu.htm" or must I give that page a .asp extension?
