I don't think this is the problem, but you have %> at then end of your include lines instead of just >.

I was wondering too at the %> instead of just >. The examples in the link Imar gave me was showing this that is why I followed it. I was thinking that probably it will work. Which it did not. I guess the example was wrong and I was copying it just like a parrot. I am not sure.

Thanks,

Yeah, I guess the link was wrong. Although I still don't know if that will fix your problem.

Yeah, the code indeed has errors. Sorry about that (not my article; just linked to it)

Still, the article has useful information about why dynamic includes are problematic, and how to work around those issues.

Cheers,

Yeah, isn't there an ASP include function like PHP's include() and require()?? Those, at least, are real easy.

Yes Imar it was very informative. It just confirmed my guess that however you code your if statements, the include files will be included. Thanks for all your help guys.

I wonder if Snib's question about ASP having a function like PHP's include() can correct the way I handled my code? I felt like I cheated with the work around I did on my program to make it work.

Thanks,

Hi Judy,

AFAIK, ASP doesn't have like that of the PHP function. There is also another way of doing this, may be the recent work around.

I had posted this already in a discussion on other topic in the same forum. I have tested this too, and found no problem in it. You can take a look at it though you problem is sorted out.

How to Implement Conditional Includes in ASP using VBScript - was posted in that site on 2nd Feb 2004.

You may want to read that post.
How to use "#include file in if..then statment?

Hope that helps.
Cheers!

PS: Though it works fine with "SELECT CASE...", I still wonder, how could the include thing not work as expected with IF... ELSE... construct, but work with SELECT CASE...
IMO, both look almost similar in functionality, but one fails and other seems to be the workaround. Got to research.:)
