I'm trying to figure out how to use the include tags and get the header to
show up without using fpse?

I'm using: <!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="header.htm" TAG="BODY" -->

what's wrong with it?

thanks

If you are doing this on your PC in a disk-based web, you should be able to
do this with the Insert > Web Component > Included Content. Why are you
trying to do this manually?

I'm still having problems though and can
not figure this out - I now understand I can insert the wc in fp2003 and
that I don't need fpse - so I've done that on the include...but for some
reason this site is still saving everything with the full localhost path
file instead of just the images/pic.jpg or on the include - header.htm; I've
tried opening another web in the same spot (My documents/my webs/web and
those sites do it correctly. I've tried recalulating links, using the FP
cleaner - all to know avail. When I go into the code and remove the full
code :

<!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="file:///C:/Documents and
Settings/Owner.PAMELA/My Documents/My Web
Sites/missouri-crafters/header.htm" TAG="BODY" -->

to just <!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="header.htm" TAG="BODY" -->

then fp gives me an error that says "Couldn't open file c:\documents and
settings\Owner.PAMELA\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Frontpagetempdir\7a5a379e.htm"

then I click ok on that and it goes ahead and makes the type change but then
all that's listed is 'header.htm' - if I type in
http://www.missouri-crafters.com/header.htm - its there - but its just not
showing up in the index.html page? I've even tried putting the code in as
<!--webbot bot="Include"
U-Include="http://www.missouri-crafter.com/header.htm" TAG="BODY" --> but
that doesn't work either - fp gives me the same error...

is there anything in this that you can give me some other pointers of where
to look? I feel that its somewhere in the way this site wants to 'save' the
files ... it was working perfectly until the other day when I put the google
ads in ... but even if I take all the code out for google - it still is not
saving correctly. I'm loathe to have to redesign the whole thing...

thanks for any help

1. Make sure that you have first opened a web / site in FP

2. Make sure all of the content you are using is created or imported into the current open web /
site prior to use it.

3. Make sure the document to be included has the following tags:

<html>
<head>
<title>New Page 1</title>
</head>
<body>
[ content to be included in other pages ]
</body>
</html>

Try removing
<base href="http://www.missouri-crafters.com">
from the <head> section of the page.
Then remove the include page by deleting the webbot.
Then add the include page by browsing to it, rather than typing in its
location.
 
"YOU ARE BRILLIANT!!!!!! I've been trying to figure this out for 3 wks - and
by just removing the base href - and then deleting the header and
reinserting it - bingo - it saved it correctly!

not sure what you meant by browsing to the include page - but what I did
after deleting the old webbot reference, I just clicked on Insert/web
component and chose include page then chose the file....bingo....it WORKED!

thank you SO SO SO MUCH!
