Hang on a minute while I get my crystal ball...
Assuming the included file is the same in both cases, is it possible that you need another "dot" in the pathname, since the subdomain directory is another layer down from the main directory?
(I'm shooting in the dark, here, but I thought I'd mention it.)
Failing that, have a word with your host as SSI and/or subdomains can be set up in funny ways.
Hope this helps,
Charlie.

Ithink charlie meant that you should try
<!--#include virtual="blabla.domain.com/left.shtml" -->

I get easily confused with directory levels, so I just put a copy of the included file in each directory, and then use the same SSI instruction to call up the included file. Would that work with sub-domains?

Just for the record, I did mean...
| Code: | | <!--#include virtual=".../left.shtml" --> |
That's one more dot assuming the subdomains were stored as subdirectories of your web home directory.

It should. From a server's point of view, subdomains or even domains, are just pointers to directories (from a file location point of view). But assuming Matthew knows where the subdomains' files are actually stored relative to the root directory, I can't see how this should work if the dots method won't.
But this is a computer, remember. Go on prove me wrong!

I don't blame you. If it's not a typo (!), please let us know for future reference.
Cheers,
Charlie.
