Assuming the include file exists and the path is correct, I'd wager that you 
can't use an include file that way. What happens if you read the include 
file into a variable and then do a response.write of the variable? I'll bet 
that would work.

If not, then the first part of your if/then test is never true. Put 
something in your else response.write and see if that's always being 
returned.

I don't know whether this would work or not, but it's not the best way to do 
it anyway. Have your confirmation.asp page write out the text file as well 
as returning the confirmation. Why do you need two pages for what can be 
easily handled by one?
