Include files in sub directories

orandaWeb · 03-02-2006, 08:30 AM

The files on my site that sit within a sub directory of the wwwroot folder and reference an include file stored within a directory up from itself e.g.

wwwroot/mysub/file.asp - file that references include

wwwroot/scripts/include.asp - include file

produces this error message:

Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0131'

Disallowed Parent Path

/mysub/file.asp, line 3

The Include file '../scripts/include.asp' cannot contain '..' to indicate the parent directory.

My include code is: 

How do I reference the files?

Hi,

You will need to enable parent paths, you can do this by going to your domain in helm and clicking on website settings and then ticking the Parent Paths box and clicking save.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I have changed the include to a virtual path which has done the trick.
