3 To change the type of the include, select the server-side include in the Document window and change the type in
the Property inspector (Window > Properties), as follows:
• If your server is an Apache web server, select Virtual. In Apache, Virtual works in all cases, while File works only
in some cases.
• If your server is a Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), select File. (Virtual works with IIS only in certain
specific circumstances.)
Note: Unfortunately, IIS won’t allow you to include a file in a folder above the current folder in the folder hierarchy,
unless special software has been installed on the server. If you need to include a file from a folder higher in the folder
hierarchy on an IIS server, ask your system administrator if the necessary software is installed.
• For other kinds of servers, or if you don’t know what kind of server you’re using, ask your system administrator
which option to use.
Change which file is included
1 Select the server-side include in the Document window.
2 Open the Property inspector (Window > Properties).
3 Do one of the following:
• Click the folder icon and browse to and select a new file to include.
• In the box, type the path and filename of the new file to include.
Edit the contents of server-side includes
You can use Dreamweaver to edit server-side includes. To edit the content associated with the included file, you must
open the file.
1 Select the server-side include in either Design view or Code view, and click Edit in the Property inspector.
The included file opens in a new Document window.
2 Edit the file, and then save it.
The changes are immediately reflected in the current document and in any subsequent document you open that
includes the file.
3 Upload the include file to the remote site if necessary.
Managing tag libraries
Note: The user interface has been simplified in Dreamweaver CC and later. As a result, you may not find some of the
options described in this article in Dreamweaver CC and later. For more information, see

About Dreamweaver tag libraries
A tag library, in Dreamweaver, is a collection of tags of a particular type, along with information about how
Dreamweaver should format the tags. Tag libraries provide the information about tags that Dreamweaver uses for code
hints, target browser checks, the Tag Chooser, and other coding capabilities. Using the Tag Library editor, you can add
and delete tag libraries, tags, attributes, and attribute values; set properties for a tag library, including format (for easy
identification in the code); and edit tags and attributes.
