The problem may be due to the fact that my environment is Apache Unix. I spent about two hours today pouring over the php on-line manual "include" spec and trying dozens of combinations. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php

I'm going to give your other suggestion a try tomorrow. Thanks again....
