Here's what I want/have.....
main site cbcog98.org
plus cjd.cbcog98.org
There are other subs but this is the "test bed"

from the main site index.shtml all works and includes [header, nav, footer] are in that folder. All works here

Now when doing http://cdj.cbcog98.org the only way to have the includes work is to put a copy in the cdj sub-domain[folder]

I want all subs to use the "main" includes

Currently working is <-- #include file="footer.html" -->
with footer.html in cdj.cbcog98.org

Have tried using
<-- #include virtual="/footer.html" for using main....that gets an error

every combination using "virtual" has failed also.....

My .htaccess reads:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://cbcog98.org [R=301,L]


<Files 403.shtml>
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Files>

Thanks for any explainations and help

siamsites

actually it doesnt.

Expl:

www.yourdomain.com/subdomain - this is the folder for the subdomain

subdomain.yourdomain.com - is a root folder

so when you work with http://subdomain.yourdomain.com you cannot access any files with ../ from www.yourdomain.com.

Have you made any headway on finding a way to call your includes? I have recently started using them where I work since I am managing a larger site, but they use .asp extensions and I think (from other posts in this formum) surpass will be using cgi call formats.

I have been naming my page with the calls with the .asp extension and using a direct file path to a folder with the includes.

site root
subfolder - my page with the includes resides here and calls the includes from a folder named "asp" that resides in this subfolder.
all of my includes are named with the .asp extension as well.
None of the includes are called. Any thoughts? Have you found something that worked?

Figured out my problem. Maybe yours too who knows. All I had to do was rename my file that had all of the includes with the ".shtml" extention. ".shtm" will not work unless you set it up under the Apache handler (I am guessing). Anyway, it is calling them correctly and my page now comes together.

thanks wicked1 for the info
but I think that siamsites really hit the nail....

using includes you can't do ../ParentFolder/include.shtml

and subdomain.domain.com is a "root" folder for subdomain

I really have not had time the last few weeks to work on it but
it sure looks like I "hit the stump" on the root folder issue
