That's normal for a lot of apps. Textpad is one of the worst.

I tend to use a subversion source control repository and check the files out onto my local disk and work locally as it's much more reliable (and you get source control!).

The <!--#include ... --> section is a "server side include". This basically replaces a part of the HTML document with another one (allowing easy implementation of templates etc).

You need to use a web server to display these files in their complete form as the #include directive is processed on ...

No hints - positive proof!

I integrated Textpad via DDE into a fairly extensive asset tracking system for an MoD contractor. There are over 600 distinct users in the company (all paid for!) I don't work there now but the fact that a new version hasn't been around for ages and Helios aren't saying ...

Regarding to PSPad. I don't like it ... yet. I'm determined to switch to it though.

And my thread was locked but not deleted.

What a way to treat your customers.

product code name chosen. thank you

This is the worst way to treat your customers.

Do use SSI - it's incredibly powerful if you have an apache host (using #echo #set and #exec) and is as reliable as static html. The BBC of all people use ONLY SSI to drive their entire web site.

I've built several *very* large commercial sites entirely with SSI including our own site (which is ...

They are probably on holiday - I know I should be! It's summer holiday here in the UK at the moment where people nip off to foreign lands (like Bognor) to trash hotels (if you can call them that) and leave pools of vomit everywhere...

Filesystem access should be transparent via the operating system, not implemented by specific applications (look at UNIX for example for a good model of filesystem implementation and ...

"When it's done" should be the answer.

Some words on versioning. TextPad is labelled version 4.7.3 or x.y.z translating as follows... Here is what you should see from the versioning:

z changes ...
