Server Side Includes

Is it possible to insert an ssi with variables? If so, how? I have a template that I’m using were I want to change the navigation, based on where the page is located on the site. I am using ssi’s but so far have not been able to pass variables to the include. For example:

<!–include file=”ABCNavigation.htm”–>
<!–include file=”DEFNavigation.htm”–>

I’d like to use

Navigation=ABCNavigation.htm
<!–include file=$Navigation–>

however, <script> does not support this. How can I pass a varible to an include?

@pukkaDec 16.2003 — you can use php.

[code=php]
<?php

$navigation = "abcnavigation.html";
include [$navigation]; ?>

[/code]

[code=php]
<?php

$navigation = "abcnavigation.html";
include "[$navigation]"; ?>

[/code]

try either one of those.

@PeOfEoDec 17.2003 — why are you passing a vairble w/ an include though? Isn't there an easier way, such as a query string, or just storeing it in a data base or using a session variable? What are you trying to accomplish though the use of an include?

Success!
