yes, because ASP is a server-side language. You can use a JavaScript script to achieve the same thing (though it will be not seen by people with JavaScript disabled).

JavaScript is the common language used for 3rd party content such as weather widgets, news feeds, et cetera.

If you control the sites, you can write the include function in whatever language you want, tailor it for each site, and use the same file to display the information.

i.e. PHP, Perl, ASP, JSP, JavaScript -- whatever works for that site.

All you're doing is pulling in a text file (which can be .html or .txt or .inc or whatever you want, pretty well), so it doesn't matter what you use.

What are you trying to do, please provide an example.

Let's say I have some HTML text (a footer) that I want diaplyed on several sites. This way I can make the cahnge one time and have it propagate on every site. This is possible in ASP with the above include statement.

Thank you,

Mike
