Abigail: have been trialling a little counter which allows visitors to click on and see how many page visits, and to include it in the footer, which means that either I have to abandon the global footer and have a specific one for each site section (with the specific stats code) or use nested includes.
My Saturday morning testing on one section so far seems to show that this works: 1.'Content' footer include [ the content of the footer without the stats counter code ] ###################################################################### <h6><a href="http://www.wellingtonlive.co.nz"> www.WellingtonLive.co.nz</a> <br /> <a href="mailto:edc@w&# 110;c.quik.co.nz?Subj ect=WELLINGTON%20LIVE:%20<!--#echo var='DOCUMENT_NAME' -->%20PAGE">email greytop</a> <br /> Copyright © 2000 - 2003, edc<a name="bottom"></a></h6> ###################################################################### 2.Section specific footer include with the counter code [omitted] ###################################################################### <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"> <tr class="footer"> <td align="center" valign="middle" width="100%"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="5" height="2" align="left" alt=" "></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center"><span style="float: left; width: 20px; "> <!-- Begin Counter code --> <!-- End Counter code --> </span> <!--#include virtual="../directory/contentfooter.shtml" --></td></tr> </table> ##################################################################### 3.Pages include call for the included footers: ###################################################################### <!--#include virtual="../directory/sectionfooter.shtml" --> ===================================================================== and so far the double include works without any apparent problems, however two points: (a) this may depend on the specific attributes of the DOCUMENT_NAME variable (b) it is somewhat more limited that the DOCUMENT_URI variable if one wants to manipulate using if_else or regex, unless of course your page naming conventions take that intended use into account, which might get a little clumsy and non intuitive....... cheers www.WellingtonLive.co.nz --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
