Include Pages - More than 1 possible?

Guest

Frontpage 2003 - I am trying to "include page" using insert web component to show navigation menu at the top of each page, and can accomplish this with no problems. However when I try to go to the bottom of the page and insert web component to try and have a bottom navigation bar, I get "stack overflow" message. I have inserted the code inside the <body> tags. I've tried to create a table and insert the page there, but still get the message. Am I limited to include only 1 page at a time?

Thank

I've got several sites using multiple Includes on a page.

Just to be clear, are you getting the "stack overflow" message when you are
actually in the process of including the page, or do you get it when you
view the page in your browser? If it happens while you are performing the
include, does FP crash when you get that error, or does it continue to work?
What if you create a new site? Are you working directly on a server or your
local hard drive?

If it happens when you view in the browser, do the includes contain any
JavaScript? If so, what happens if you include a "plain" html page instead?

The "stack overflow" sounds more like a program bug than a problem with
includes. Normally you wouldn't see a message like that. It could also be
related to JavaScript errors, but that would only happen if you were in
Preview mode or viewing in the browser.

No you are not limited to just 1

Have you tried the usual repairs in the sequence below:
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
Usually in C:\WINDOWS\Temp and %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
- in FP 2003 you need to look in the super hidden folder
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
3) Run a Repair on IE
(see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=318378 )
4) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, MS Office and your Video card
(Windows Update and Office Update sites, plus your video card supplier site)
5) Open FP and Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins,
6) Open your FP Web/Site and run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks

Thanks for the quick replies! I think the error is coming with the script. I tried inserting a plain page with just text/graphics and it did fine with no errors...so I think the problem is with the 2 scripts being on the same page, conflicting. I am working off the site saved on my hard drive. The navigation menu bar script I am using allows for choices of a vertical list of buttons or a single horizontal line, with the number of buttons I need - it's too long. I was trying to have 1 at the top of the page and 1 at the bottom. I think I need to go back to the software I'm using and troubleshoot there.

Thanks for all your help and insight.

I am not sure if this is your problem or not but I had similar troubles with includes and found that you cannot place the same include in two different places on the same page. What you have to do is create a new includes page using all the same stuff but change the name of the include and then it works fine.

I just tried it and it worked okay - putting the same include twice on a
page.
