Include not working

Are there any reasons why an Include wouldn't work? I'd started a site on my
own web space, and it worked just fine.

I've now moved all the files over to the sites host, and uploaded it - but the
Includes no longer work.

There will be a small database element to the site, and PHP includes work OK -
would it be bad practice in any way just to save all the pages as .php?

If you view the code, you can see the include code :

<!--#include file="navigation.html" -->

Any reason it's not pulling through the file?

It looks to me as if your navigation include file has an unclosed division.

<div id="navcontainer">

1. Does the host support includes?
2. Is the parent file named with an extension that would trigger a server
parse, e.g., *.shtm(l)?

No - I frequently do this.

Looks like the HTML includes are not supported.

Thanks guys - if it's a question of not being supported by the host, and
there's no downside with php, then I guess I'll just do that.

Nancy - I think there is a </div> lurking after that little bit of JS.
