asp include files

M

MaAnna

Using FrontPage 2003 and WinXP Pro, when designing asp pages, I use several include files for the navigation and other common page elements. The problem is, I can only view the completed page by loading it through my browser (IE5.0). It would be nice to see the completed page (with the contents of the include files displayed along with the regular page content) in design or preview mode of FrontPage. Is this possible? It's difficult to design a page if you can't see everything on it without going back and forth to a browser.

I often use the FrontPage include page ( include/ web component/ include
content) what it does is actually write the content at save time. you get
slightly larger pages but you can see it when editing and you don't have to
make the server do the work at run time. obviously there are places this
won't work but it's good for most "trim" such as banner, side, footer, etc.
