how to add < category > on non links pages?
I've searched thru the forums, but have no idea what to really search for. I'm trying to add the < % menu % > to several pages that are not built by links.... is there a way to include the ssi or something? Any help would be very much appreciated!

:)

I don't recall a <%menu%> tag. But hey, I'm doing good to remember my name.

Anyway, if you are talking about | Home | Add a Site | Modify a Site | What's New | What's Cool | Top Rated | Random Link | Search |, the best thing to do is just view the source code on a page which it appears and copy and paste it.

I suggest you put it in a text file and use ssi to call it as in

<!--#include virtual="/menu.txt" -->

That way if you need to change it, you change it one time and all the pages that use it are automatically updated.

The page that it appears in has to have the html ( not htm ) extension and be properly "associated" with shtml.

I have done it as above and it is great...
