Includes files - is this an error?

[simonog]

Firstly - can anyone point me at documentation for the use of the includes files - I seem to have lost whatever I had and can't find where it came from.

seondly - a possible error. I have started to update some of my old files and run into an interesting issue with the include file header.asp.

called with an argument which is not an array (just a title) you get into a piece of code the begins...

if intCHLinksAboveTitle <> "1" or Not bTouchScreen Then
if UCase(strShowLinks) = "YES" Then
' Check for the links.htm file or create the link row
strLinkCheck = linkfile()
if strLinkCheck <> "No File" Then
HE_strOutPut = strLinkCheck
Else
HE_strOutPut = HSLinks()
End if
HE_strMenuRow = " "
Elseif UCase(strShowLinks) = "NO" Then
HE_strMenuRow = " "
Elseif UCase(strShowLinks) = "OLDSTYLE" OR UCase(strShowLinks) = "SAME" Then
If bTouchScreen Then
strLinkFileName = "links_touchscreen.htm"
Else
strLinkFileName = "links.htm"
End if
strLinkFile = hs.GetAppPath & "\html\" & strLinkFileName
' Get the file contents "
strPageContents = FileContents(strLinkFile)
if strPageContents <> "No File" Then
HE_strMenuRow = strPageContents
End if

This piece of code does not seem to load the values of strShowLinks from the ini file. so it misbehaves.

Furthermore if you force strshowlinks to Yes, it then loads field HE_strOutPut and then does nothing with it. shouldn't the line HE_strMenuRow = " " actually be HE_strMenuRow = HE_stroutput?
