server side #includes

Hi,

I'm using <!--#include file="counter.asp" --> tag 2 include asp file in a shtml file. the asp file is called alright, but, only the html tags in the asp file are getting executed - not the asp content. how 2 go about it? can anybody help me out? thankx in adv.

by the time you have executed your asp code and called the server side include, you have already made your trip to the server, therefore, any asp code will not be executed within the include. to have it executed, you need to be running iis5. then you can use the server.execute method. check the msdn link below to learn more:
