Guys, I'm not proficient with programming. In fact, I don't know anything about it. And its been two days I've been working on a stupid HTML code I can't make to work.

I've been trying to add a text-link panel to my site that will hang on the bottom of every page of the site, which is static HTML web site. Instead of loading the portion of the HTML table code into phpAdsNew, a friend suggested inserting this line into a place where I wish the link panel to show up and simply editing one file to update all pages automatically:

<!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="http://www.theworldjournal.com/links.htm" TAG="BODY" -->

So I did. Here is what the link panel should look like:
http://www.theworldjournal.com/links.htm

But this is how it is being displayed on a site - the look is totally broken.
http://www.theworldjournal.com/poll3.htm

I cannot figure it out, so I'm asking someone here for help. Thank you very much in advance for any effort.

Oh yeah, I'm using FrontPage. Don't laugh. :D

Best,

Problem solved. I ended up using phpAdsNew instead of trying to figure this out. The solution would have probably ended up being more complex than I think it is.

Thank you for at least glancing through this thread. ;)

When I use include in html I do this
<!--#include file="directory/whatever.html"-->
And the html file I include in has to end in shtml
for example
I use
<!--#include file="header.html"-->
page contents html blah blah
<!--#include file="footer.html"-->
in my index.shtml
Its allot easier if you have to change header and footer because it changes all pages you have the includes in.
