Having problems with #include file="..."

[DarkJedi]

it works only from the same directory - like if i put ads.html in www.site.com/dir1/

but i want it to work from root - like put ads.html in www.site.com/


any ideas why it wont work from root ?

It would help to know what language you are trying to use this with...

SSI includes right?

Can you type out exactly how you're coding it, and where the files are respectively to each other

yeah SSI

It works like this:
<1--#include file="ads.html" -->


But doesnt work like this:
<1--#include file="../dir/ads.html" -->

or like this:
<1--#include file="www.site.com/dir/ads.html" -->

Hmm, as long as the files are in the right locations I don't notice anything wrong there.

use include virtual instead of include file

Hey, try virtual= instead of file=

ie,
<!--#include virtual="../ads.html" -->
