Re: Really basic question - including code

Hugh:

and "#include

I'm no expert but I "think" I read somewhere that "virtual" tells
the server to look for the files in some directory, other that
the one the page is in. Otherwise they are the same. I have
always used "#include virtual= filename.ext" and it seems to work
no mater where the file is.

Though this satisfies my simple mind, I must admit to a nagging
fear that there just might be more to it than this. Some of the
others may be able to elaborate.

I went looking for: http://www.coffeebeanshop.com/beantest.shtml
but got a File Not Found message. I suspect you may have deleted
it before I got to the computer today. (Lots going on.) Your
original page looks just fine and I suspect the page with the
include files will be identical.

Best to All and I hope all of you have more snow than we do in
Redding. Santa gave us a big, lingering High Pressure Area for
Xmas.

P.S. Sorry to see Dead Brain Cells trademarked. And here I always
thought it was generic to the various web breeds.
