Help with virtual includes
I have been using virtual includes in some of my web pages and they work great as long as the .shtml include is in the same directory. How do you reference the include from a page in a different directory.
What I have been using <#include virtual="info.shtml">
Thanks.

I use lots of INCLUDES on my sites. To help organize things I make a sub-directory to hold all my included files. On my servers I just have to say #include virtual="/directory/file". Should work on yours too.

Hi srgray:
You access includes the same way you access images. If you have an include named info.shtml and you want to include it in a file in "/myfolder", you would use:
<#include virtual="../info.shtml">

Exactly... we do that, too. Just create a directory like /ssi or something. Organization is a big plus.
