OK, I renamed all my files with the .SHTML extension. I made the text file with my html code in it. I put the <!--#include file="" --> code on each page. BUT when I access my pages it shows a blank space where the nav bar and header are supposed to be. WHAT'S WRONG???? If someone wants to take a look at the page I'm having issues with it's http://www.pawsnpals.net/newsite/aboutus.shtml I can't figure it out. Please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

according to the coding, everything that is supposed to show up shows up

OK, but does the nav bar on the left show up? Cuz it doesn't when I look.

the file you're including should be .txt, not .html :)

Oh, the nav bar doesn't show up. Sorry, couldn't edit last post anymore... had to post again. Look above at what lefty said

if you are on the doteasy "zero" dollar hosting plan, i don't think that SSI commands are available to you...
