Server side include does not appear in browser

I've imbedded a server side include within an html file. I
can see it in the Dreamweaver design previewer, but it does not
appear when displaying the html in a browser. I've tried saving the
included file as "html", "htm", "shtml", and "shtm". Nothing seems
to work.
Any guesses?

On apache, you have to use either shtm(l), or PHP. And in the
event that
you use the latter, the include directives must be PHP
includes, not HTML
includes, e.g., this -
<?php require('includes/foo.php') ?>
not this -
<!--#include file="includes/foo.inc" -->

  • Edit web part option does not appear in browser on lists

    I've inserted some lists on a wiki page. However, when viewing in the browser the checkbox and the dropdown containing the Edit Web Part option do not appear. On the properties tag I thought I enabled all the correct properties such as Allow Edit, Allow
    Minimize etc. What am I missing?

    Hi Larry,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the Edit web part option disappeared in the list web part.
    I recommend to check if the account has permission to edit the web part, please check the permission of the account in Site Permissions and the list permissions.
    Please also check if the target audience is set in the web part.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • Lock does not appear in browser for JSP secured by SSL???

    Could someone please let me know how I can get the SSL lock to appear in the broswer when displaying my JSP that appears within a frameset page???
    When I access the page without frames, there is no problem - I get the lock.
    I have made sure that all pages are within the same folder and that all links specified within the pages have HTTPS and not HTTP.
    Please help with any tutorials, references, or suggestions that could assist me in solving my problem.
    Thank you!

  • Server Side Includes not rendering correctly in Firefox with Layers

    Hi
    The server side includes are not correctly rendering with layers in firefox. From my site here:-
    http://www.osteriastecca.com/index.php
    the home_page.php content renders above a layer on the index.php page. Initially I thought this might be a Flash layer issue but the wmode is set correctly to transparent and it works fine with a normal ssi. It also works fine in Firefox without a server side include as you can see here:-
    http://www.osteriastecca.com/index_old.php
    Works fine in IE and Safari, but not Firefox.
    How can this be rectified?
    Regards
    Glennyboy

    What testing server setup do you have? Are you using something like WAMP?
    What do you see on screen which tells you the SSIs are not rendering? Any error message?

  • Server-side includes not rendering

    Hi, I'm on CS5.5 (Windows operating environemnt). The server-side includes are not rendering in Live view now, whereas they were previously. Is this some sort of configuration issue, if so can you help me fix it.

  • Server Side Includes Don't Show Up?

    I support a web site and I've been maintaining it with DW (previous to CS3 and now I'm using CS3) and except for the home page, whenever I test a page locally on my PC, the content of the includes don't show up in the browser.  Once I upload them to the web site, they work fine.  I should point out that the home page is the only page in the root directory.  All the other pages are in a next level folder.  At the time I designed the web site, I thought this would help me organize things, but I regret doing it.  This has happened with the previous version and with CS3.
    Anyway, it's what I'm stuck with.  I've set up my local site without server access.  Given my situation, is there anyway to get the includes to work on my PC when I test the pages within DW?

    To summarize: I press F12 to start a browsing session and that page is displayed properly with server side includes.  While in that browsing session, I click on a link to another page, and that second page in the browsing session does not disply the server side includes.  When these pages are uploaded to the server, they work properly
    If you open one of the inner pages, and hit F12 can you see the includes on that page,,  or on any of the other inner pages when you browse to them individually?   I bet you can  :-)
    It's only when you try and go from the temp file to a properly name file that it doesn't work. There was a technote explaining this much better than Ican, but I just can't find it now.
    If you want to see the pages work as if they were on the server, that is going from page to page by clicking on individual links, you really need to set up a testing server on your machine.

  • Cannot Preview Server Side Includes in Browser

    I am working on building a new site using server side
    includes for the main header graphic and menu items. For testing
    purposes, I created an .html file with one <div> tag
    containing a single graphic and an .shtml file with the server side
    include code placed in the <head> area. (Doesn't seem to work
    if I place it anywhere within the <body> tag... not sure
    why). At any rate, I can see the SSI in the design view of my
    document, but cannot see it whenever I go to preview the page in my
    browser (Firefox 2.0.0.3). Everything works fine if I upload the
    files to my Web server and view them that way, but why can't I see
    the SSI when working on my local files? The Dreamweaver help files
    explain that I should be able to do so, but it's just not working.
    Well, I'm now at a loss and cannot figure out if I'm doing
    something wrong of if this is just a bug of some kind. Can anyone
    help me to solve this problem so that I can get back on track?
    Much appreciated,
    ~Greg

    This is not going to work at all. You cannot place body HTML
    in the <head>
    region.

  • Server Side Include not functioning the same across website

    digitaldealershipsystem.com
    <!--#include file="/includes/navigation.php" -->
    ** this is the navigation pulldown.
    This works on most of the main pages
    When you go to
    digitaldealershipsystem.com/live.html
    digitaldealershipsystem.com/live2.html
    digitaldealershipsystem.com/live3.html
    The same is included but does not work on Chrome, but does work on Firefox
    To restate, the naming is the same on all web pages, and it works on Chrome -- except for these "live" pages
    On Firefox, they work on all pages, included live pages
    For testing purposes on the following page, I tried 'virtual' file and that did not change the results in either browser
    digitaldealershipsystem.com/live4.html
    My thoughts:
    If there is a conflict on the page, then why only is Chrome being effected
    Any ideas?

    If clearing the cache does not help, then check your code validation - you have several errors. Server side includes are browser independant - because they are assembled on the server, not the client. If there's a difference in rendering between browsers, it has to do with your html/css and has nothing to do with SSI.

  • Server Side Includes not displaying in DW CS3 design view

    I have this code in my page (see below):
    When I open the file in Dreamweaver MX 2004 in design view,
    the page displays correctly. That is, I see the correct styles from
    the style sheet contained in Head_Standard.html and the logo/menu
    in Logo_TopMenu.html
    When I open the page in DW CS3, I do not see the effects of
    the style sheet and I do not see the logo/menu.
    However, when I change the code for the first include from:
    virtual="/ServerSide
    to
    virtual="
    ../../ServerSide
    then the page renders correctly in Dreamweaver CS3.
    My first reaction was: what?! And my question is: how do I
    use a root reference inside the head and get it to display properly
    in DW CS 3?

    "Go to Edit > Preferences > Invisible Elements >
    Server-Side Includes (Check this box) to show contents of included
    file"
    I already do this.
    For me:
    /ServerSide... does NOT work
    ../../ServerSide... works
    So, a relative reference works and a reference to the root
    does not. I have over 20 websites with root references and I need
    this to work in DW9.

  • Server side includes: outdated and not supported by host?

    I've been using SSI's for ages with no problem from any host. Recently I signed up with a new web hosting company, one of the more established ones in the Seattle area. They do not support SSI's and claim that using them is not safe and is not a modern approach to web design. They suggested I use a more advanced programming language to create my sites, such as ASP.NET (something I have no desire to do).
    Are server side includes outdated and no longer the way to do things? I find that hard to believe.
    -Jesse

    Are server side includes outdated and no longer the way to do things? I find that hard to believe.
    That language is from Microsoft who seem to think so along with Windows based hosting providers offering ASP.NET.
    IIS no longer comes with SSI installed by default. It has to be configured by the hosting provider.
    http://blogs.iis.net/robert_mcmurray/archive/2010/12/28/iis-notes-on-server-side-includes- ssi-syntax-kb-203064-revisited.aspx
    However, classic SSIs (in the sense of including static content from one page inside another) are still one of the most powerful, safe and flexible tools for managing repetitive page elements in any web page. Not to mention easy.
    ASP.NET has its own way of doing the equivalent of SSIs - and lots more beside but much of which does not interest web designers at this stage.

  • Server-side includes not showing in new DW CS5.5. Any suggestions?

    I have used DW for years and years and have never had any problems. I just installed CS5.5 and am not seeing my php includes in the design pane. I've searched the forums but have not found a working answer.
    I'm editing files I've edited in CS5 and earlier with no problem.
    I've checked the server-side includes box in the configuration but no change occurs.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    What testing server setup do you have? Are you using something like WAMP?
    What do you see on screen which tells you the SSIs are not rendering? Any error message?

  • How do I know if private browsing is working? The purple mask does not appear when I click the mask icon. In my privacy settings "Never Remember" is selected.

    I'm trying to confirm private browsing is working. Right now I have no way of knowing if it is on or not. The purple mask ,referred to in help, does not appear when selected. I should say in my privacy settings, I have selected "Never Remember" for history.

    Do you mean you have checked the box: "Always use private browsing mode"? If so, it's intentional that the private browsing icon isn't displayed as we didn't want Firefox to be showing everyone within view that you're using private browsing mode IIRC.
    There are some easy things you can do to confirm that you are in private browsing mode such as visiting a new website and then confirming it doesn't appear in the history window.

  • Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0

    Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
    Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
    Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
    Help please!

    Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
    I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
    When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
    I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
    Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
    Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
    Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
    Not sure what to do..
