Include Page works well in FrontPage, but not in IE6

Hi. I have applied the Include Page feature in FrontPage 2003. It worked well in FrontPage in the Design view as well as in the Preview. Yet I can't see the Include Page part when I previewed the site in IE 6. Does anybody know how to resolve this?
Thanks.

Are you running the page off of a web server or in the file system.
FrontPage allows you to run a web off the file system. In these cases, some
of the features are less than optimal. When you deploy the included page, it
should work fine.

It has been awhile since I played around with FP features like this, so look
at the tag created. The simplest form of include is simply:

<!-- #INCLUDE page="????" -->

Shared borders and Include Pages are design time tools w/ the content (inside the <BODY> tags) of the Shared Border or Include page
"embedded" or included as html in your pages when you save any of the file(s) using them (or save the borders / include pages
themselves)

FP converts your page(s) to a series of tables to include the Shared borders, (which are really just a special case of Include
pages)
But FP can not build those tables if either your shared border page content or main page content has illegal html or broken tag
pairs
- usually due to missing </body></html> tags, or unmatched table / cell tags (unclosed table / cell tags), or some other unclosed
html block element

If you can see them using File Preview in Browser they will publish in as part of your pages

If you can't see them using File Preview in Browser, it's because FP can not build the included content tables, so you need to
validate and correct your broken html

Thank you very much. The problem is now fixed.
I am wondering if the problem was caused by the using of the Optimize HTML function.
By the way, which versions of IE support this Include Page feature?
Thanks.

Use the Optimise HTML with caution. Removing leading whitespace is normally
safe, but the other options are best avoided unless you know exactly what
they do. For example, removing *all* HTML comments can destroy webbots.

All browsers (or more correctly - no browsers) "support" the Include Page
feature - browsers see an included segment as part of the complete page.
