FrontPage and Include Page
|
Can't Post
|
|
I have a page called news.htm and that page contains a FrontPage navigation bar, as does the rest of my web site pages. Due to this, I cannot simply modify the template file for the /publish/index.html page. So, on the news.htm page I have inserted an "include page" for the /publish/index.html file. However, then I make changes through the NM admin, the information on the actual /publish/index.html file updates, but the information on the news.htm page that has the included content does not change. I have never experienced this type of issue.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Hi Troy,
That really does seem odd that you can't include the published News Manager index into your news.htm file.
My suggestion is to try using a Server Side Include to pull the News Manager index into your page.
Here is one example:
<!--#include virtual="/nm/publish/index.html" -->
You may have to rename your news.htm file to news.shtml to use an Server Side Include depending how your server is set up.
Hopefully this works. If you have any other questions, let me know. :)
Cheers

I agree. I was able to do this earlier today with the SSI, but thanks anyway. The Include Page function that is built into FrontPage is a FrontPage Web-Bot, so my guess is that there is something keeps your content from updating. Possibly a tag you guys either insert or don't insert that is messing with FrontPage.

The default New Manager index.html template uses only basic HTML tags, so there is nothing in there that would specifically interfere with FrontPage. As for missing tags, you can try to Frontpage-include another HTML file you update manually to see if the same behavior happens or not. Taht will help narrow down the possibilities. Another scenario to explore is whether there are settings for the Frontpage webbot that can be finetuned.

Yeah, I've tried all the testing with other files and everything--really covered all the basics thoroughly with different scenarios. There is just something about the way your software updates the files that keeps it from updating on a FrontPage include. Since I got it to work with the SSI, I'm not that concerned about it, but it would be nice to use the standard FrontPage tool to do this. If anyone discovers anything, let me know. For now, I'll just use the SSI.
Thanks,
