How do I use server side include to include a page from another si

[Guest]

How can I show the content of a page on one site (e.g. my blog at
aaltenvoogd.blog-city.com) on a page in my own web site (e.g. in the Blog
section of my site at www.aaltenvoogd.com)

At the moment I'm using an inline frame but want to get away from those.

Someone suggested using include pages but these restrict you to pages in
your own web.

Apparently SSI is the thing to use but I haven't found explanation of how to
do this. I thought it would have been straightforward but am none the wiser
after lots of searching and reading.

Many thanks,
Stefan

You can not use SSI to include content that is not within your domain/site. You are limited to using
the IFrame unless the other site offer a RSS feed, etc.

Thomas, thanks for clearing that one up.

Also means I have come full circle, from inline frames to include pages to
ssi and back to inline frames, and my original conundrum:
how to get my inline frame to resize *vertically* as the window is resized
(it resizes fine horizontally but vertically I have had to go for fixed
height of 385pixels).

The page design uses DWT and the layout in the attached DWT is with tables.

Thanks,
Stefan

If you are insert the IFrame in a table cell and have look in Code view to make sure that both the V
& H is set 100% it should fill the table cell when the page load, however once the page load, I
don't think you will see it change as the browser window is resized. This seems to be a limitation
of IFrames.

Hi Stefan,

Have you checked out blog-city support? I have used Blogger, and Blogger
allows you to customize your template (i.e. your custom code, although you'll
lose your DWT functionality, which will require manual updates to that page)
with their blog code wherever you want to place it in the page. When the blog
is published, the page is published to your site, making your design and
their blog functionality seamless.

That may be the solution. I know it worked for me.
