That would result in: <HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE></HEAD><BODY> This is the header.cfm </BODY></HTML> This is the index.cfm<BR> This is the test.cfm<BR>
....which, of course, is invalid. If your main including template already has the html and body tags, then no... the included template should not have them. When you view source of the final HTML that it outputs to the browser, you should only have one set each of <html></html> and <body></body> tags. -----Original Message----- From: Coldfusion [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2006 6:29 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Including a file No you do not need a head/body tags, but then again it really depends on what the included file does. Example: this is an index.cfm file INDEX.CFM ------------------------------------------ <cfinclude template="header.cfm"> This is the index.cfm<BR> <cfinclude template="test.cfm"> HEADER.CFM ------------------------------------------ <HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE></HEAD><BODY> This is the header.cfm </BODY></HTML> TEST.CFM ------------------------------------------ This is the test.cfm<BR> You will notice in this case my header.cfm file has the required tags not the index.cfm or Test.cfm -----Original Message----- From: Pete [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2006 6:08 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Including a file Hi All Just a really quick question - if I have a main program and I include another file should I have the head and body tags in the included program ?
