Snippet call displays

I’m trying to call a form on a page of mine, but the form doesn’t display, the snippet call does instead. Any suggestions?
Snippet call:

[!eForm? &formid=`newEstimate` &subject=`New Estimate` &tpl=`EstimateForm` &report=`EstimateFormReport` to =`[email protected]`!]

Try turning off Rich Text for the document and see if TinyMCE is "entifying" the tokens in the snippet tag.

Ok, I tried that. It’s still displaying the snippet code.

I thought for sure that was it, but it still displays the snippet code. I also removed that part all together, and still no go.
I did notice that if I used the Minimal Template, the form displayed. I’m not sure what is in my template that would cause my snippet code to show. Here’s my template:

[!template_header!]


            <ul class="leftNavItem">
                <li><a href="index.php?id=47">Home Cleaning Services</a></li>

Header:

<?php
include("assets/templates/value/includes/template_header.inc");
?>

Footer:

<?php
include("assets/templates/value/includes/template_footer.inc");
?>

Try this:

return include("assets/templates/value/includes/template_header.inc");

If that doesn’t work, post the contents of the header or footer .inc file.

BTW, I’m not seeing any snippet code at that URL.

I think I see what’s happening. By having the snippet print the eForm tag, it’s being produced too late for the parser to operate on it.

Why not just put the header and footer in chunks and include them with a chunk tag? I don’t see any need for a snippet here.

{{header}}

{{footer}}
