FrontPage INCLUDE webbot problem - HELP!

Using FP 2002. Use INCLUDE webbot two ways: 1) many INCLUDES throughout site to insert text - all work fine when published. 2) one use of INCLUDE throughout site to place menu bar on each page - works fine when viewed with FrontPage under "Normal" or "Preview" tabs - but when published the menu bar simply does not appear. Only other thing I see different is that the included text pages are in a subdirectory, whereas the menu bar html is in the same directory.

My IT people are stumped. Please help.

Here's the html invoked:

<!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="topbar.htm" TAG="BODY" --><span style="position: absolute; left: 82; top: 7"><p>

Here's an example of the other INCLUDEs that work ok:

<!--webbot bot="Include" U-Include="Text/g johnson text.htm" TAG="BODY" -->

Thanks.

A few things you can try.

Check your HD copy with your browser. Sometimes the FP Preview will work but not the actual browser.

If the HD copy works with your browser...

Check your topbar.htm for any weird coding.

Go live and delete topbar.htm and then republish the one from your HD.

OK, found the answer. <sheepish grin>

Did not bookend the code to be INCLUDEd with <html> and <body>. Did this with all the other places and it had worked, but overlooked it here.

Thanks to all.
