Include components and shared borders are displayed incorrectly on IIS

After you upgrade your Microsoft Internet Information Services-based Web site to FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions or SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft, the include components and shared borders are not displayed correctly. The body of the main page is displayed as part of the shared border or the include component, appearing to duplicate data throughout the page. Also, after you insert a PhotoGallery or an Include page, you see the path to the page rather than the content of the page. In Normal view in FrontPage, the page appears correctly, but when you view it in a Web browser, you see only the path.

This problem is caused by the configuration of the performance tuning settings on the server, in particular, the Max Cache Document Size setting. For information about how to configure these settings, see the "More Information" section later in this article.

Remove the registry keys that affect the components. To do this, follow these steps.

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
