Well it is a assumption based on the fact that he stated that he uploaded the Include Page via FTP.
In general the only reason someone would do this, is if they did not have the FP extensions.
If the FP extensions were installed he could have just open the site in FP and made the changes to
the Include Page, and the site would have been updated automatically once he save the page.

I'm still trying to figure out how you know James doesn't have FPSE..he didn't include a url or
mention extensions in orig post..you're physic??
| Tom you are correct in a sense, however you can not take a page to be included in other pages,
| upload it via FTP to the server and have it actually be included.
|
| However if the server has the FP extensions, and you upload the file via FTP (which is a no-no),
but
| then open the site in FP and run Tools | Recalculate Hyperlinks, the extensions will update all
| pages using the Include content with the new content.
