    Hi all,

    I have been given a asp legacy application, on each code file they have included some files which are located in the web directory they are,
    <!-- #include virtual="/dss/includes/header.inc"-->
    <!-- #include virtual="/dss/includes/classes/user.inc"-->
    <!-- #include virtual="/dss/includes/classes/menulist.inc"-->


    But i tried to find these files in the directory and couldn't locate them (tried searching them too, no result). My application runs perfectly fine,

    Any idea how this thing works and where the files actually located.

    Thanks

    Maybe you need to modify some instances of server.mappath, with your directory or a physical path, otherwise, have you checked those includes are not within ASP <% %> delimeters?

    I have just found the files are outside my project folder..(since its a virtual keyword)
