EWD -> RE: Front Page Includes (10/7/2002 14:11:53)
|
I' ve been trying to teach the concept to someone myself. The light bulb went on for them when I explained it as though the include was a book in the library. Rather than each individual person (each page) having their own copy of the book (the included element), each individual goes to the library to get it when it' s needed (when the page is displayed).
My 2 cents about includes: I' ve used FP' s " includes" , Dreamweaver' s " library items" and GoLive' s " components" and found Front Page' s includes the easiest by far, with the possible exception of straight SSI. The other two editors force you to re-upload every page that calls the included element once you' ve changed it. I don' t want to revisit the FP v. Dreamweaver discussion, but if my conclusion is incorrect I' d appreciate knowing about it. [:)]

Select any page from your web or even http://www.yahoo.com.
As far as I know, you cannot select a site from outside your web to include, unless you' re using PHP.
