As I'm writing this I think I am answering my own question, but I'd like to
get any other ideas on the subject as well.
I have a standard Header.asp that I want to include in every other page in
my site. Header.asp is located in the root folder, but the calling pages are
in various folders/levels. Since the relative paths specified in header are
subject to change and are based on the relative path of the calling page,
problems arise. (Strangley, using the IFRAME method of including a header
doesn't react the same way.)
The solution I believe lies in using absolute paths in the Header.asp file
using the "virtual" include qualifier. But this assumes your development
directory structure is the same as your production environment. So I guess
that is the answer. Use absolute paths and set up your development directory
structure to be identical to your production.
Any other thoughts/best practices?

use virtual includes to call yuo headers as they will work the same
everywhere http://www.powerasp.com/content/code...s/includes.asp
then in your headers use full urls to everything or virtual paths so theyt
work from any level ogf your site

and yes virtual includes are going to be different on your lcaol machine
than on the live server
there isnt much you can do about that unless parent paths are enabled and
you want to do all your includes with "../" info which will work both at
home and n the live server

I'm just starting to employ unit testing (I'm using doctest), and I am

are appropriate ones for the class. One portion of the validation code

Hi,
Just curious: is there a bit of ASP code you can place in the top of a
document that will force all root relative image and file paths in the
HTML of this doc to expand to include the full URL?
I doubt it, but before I did it manually, I thought I'd ask. We use a
template of sorts, but need one document to use the full URL, and it
would better to just have it that way in the one document and not the
entire template.

Hi everyone.
I am a little stumped at why when I try to include a file in same
directory as the script being processed, it looks in the same directory
as the script that included it to begin with. Is there any way I can
get around this? Is there anyway to get the name and/or of the script
being processed, rather than the name and/or path of the script that
was first called?
Many thanks.

Can I modify code that I have included using
<?php
include("../Index.php");
?>
The Index.php file contains links that need to be modified to work.
Index.php is basically an html file uses a linked css file and when its
included in the new file its referencing a css file in the wrong spot. I
need to add "../" to the css file reference in Index.php to make it work.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
