RE: ASP Includes on pages

Rebecca et al,

Hmmm ... I can't argue with success, but I tried doing something
like this once and ran into precisely the problem that was mentioned
- that INCLUDE is processed before the .ASP code in the page
is executed. According to the MSKB article referenced below,
MS has introduced the Server.Execute method in IIS 5.0 specifically
to deal with this problem.
