Include ssi in a form?

I would like to include a ssi-file in a form so that I only need to build one file and then copy it x times...

Something like:

Code:

<input type="text" name="T1" size="20">

Code:

<textarea name="T1" cols="20" rows="1"></textarea>

If this is a part of my index-file I can copy the file to sevral directories where T1.txt contains different information....

Ex. /my-site/index.html include /my-site/T1.txt and /more/index.html includes /more/T1.txt while the index-file are actually the same - just copied to different directories...

How can I write the input/textarea-tag to include the info in the txt-file?

The reason to do this is to avoid making sevral index-files, but also to give the user the opportunity to change the input/textarea info and mail it to me with the form/post command...

Thanks!

Just as you've done it.

If you want the text to be the value of the input field then:
<input type="text" name="T1" size="20" value="">

Yepp!

My fault - I forgot a minute that this is a SERVER side command...

No wonder it wouldn't work in FrontPage....

Thanks!

You would not know how to get a single file printet out?

Something like:

Code:

so that only line 2 in file.txt is included on my page?

@ngelot

...a single LINE in a file....

Got help from another guy:

Code:

This prints the line beginning with "name" in text.txt without printing "name" in the beginning of the output...

Works fine :-D
