The Generated Include File - MACROMEDIA DREAMWEAVER 8-DREAMWEAVER API Reference

The generated include file

The include file that
connection.The filename for the include file is the connection name and has the file extension
that is defined for the server model associated with the current site.
Connections are shared, so set the allowMultiple value to false. This ensures that the
connection file is included in the document only once and that the server script remains
in the page if any other server behaviors use it.
The following sections illustrate some sample include files that
generates for various default server models.

mapping file, which should be similar to connection_includefile.edml, as shown in
definition file for your connection type" on page
ASP JavaScript
The ASP and JavaScript include file should be named MyConnection1.asp, where
MyConnection1 is the name of the connection. The following sample is an include file for an

<%
// Filename="Connection_ado_conn_string.htm"
// Type="ADO"
// HTTP="true"
// Catalog=""
// Schema=""
var MM_MyConnection1_STRING = "dsn=pubs";
%>
The server behavior file includes this connection by using the relative file include statement,
as shown in the following example:
<!--#include file="../Connections/MyConnection1.asp"-->
