Including ASPX page in Classic ASP page?

[Chris Ashley]

Hi there,

I need to include an ASPX page within an ASP page. Is this possible?

EG:

making-a-claim.asp is:

<!-- #include file="top.asp" -->

<!-- #include virtual="/contactform/contact.aspx" -->

<!-- #include file="bottom.as p" -->

I get the error:

"Page Command Out Of Order

/contactform/contactus.aspx, line 1

The @ command must be the first command within the Active Server Page.
"

Will I have to go down the IFrame route instead?

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

With that way that includes work in ASP, no this will not work. When you
include files, you're essentially joining two files together before any ASP
is even processed. So, by doing what you're doing, you'd be trying to
execute the contents of the ASPX file using asp.dll.

Given that ASP and ASPX are handled by different ISAPI applications, no.
That is not possible.

Chris,
the only way you could "include" an aspx page in a classic ASP page is by
having an IFRAME in the ASP page whose source is the aspx page. You can
control borders, width etc to make it look like it is seamless.
