Include Pages

[chip]

Have a programming question. I designed a web site in which I placed the
side menu on it's own page and then did an "include page"(menu.html) to post
the menu on each page. My problem is that when I make a change to the menu
page and save it, the change does not propagate to all of the pages where
menu.html is included.

The only way for the changes to show up is to go into each page, delete the
include and then reinsert the same include again.

Any ideas on why it won't propagate would be appreciated. I might as well
not use the include page if I have to go into each page anyway.

Thanks in advance

Chip

Are you working within a Front Page disk based web (ie, a
folder which has the global icon)?

Yes it is a disk based web. Also I forgot to say I'm using FP 2003. Also The
changes are there when I open the individual pages and preview them the
changes are there but they don't show when it I load it to my server.

Always open / edit your pages with the FP web open first
Run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks then publish changed pages
- clear you browser cache before viewing your site
