Question

How do I get include to work with URLs?

I get the following error when I try and embed a URL:

This site does not allow %INCLUDE% of URLs 

Every piece of documentation I see has the exact same example and error:

3. Display the current time in Tokyo in a TWiki page

    * You type:
          o Tokyo: %INCLUDE{"http://TWiki.org/cgi-bin/xtra/tzdate?tz=Asia/Tokyo" pattern="^.*<\!--tzdate:date-->(.*?)<\!--/tzdate:date-->.*"}% 
    * You get:
          o Tokyo: 

Warning
    This site does not allow %INCLUDE% of URLs 

What is the suggested solution?

Thanks, ~Donavon
