angularjs-ng-include

Is it wrong to assume that ngInclude can take a raw path? I keep trying to set my ngInclude as follows: <div ng-include src="views/header.html"></div> This does not work but if I do something like this it does work. // HeaderController app.controller('HeaderCtrl', function($scope){ $scope.templates = {[ template: { url: 'views/header.html' } ]}; $scope.template = $scope.templates[0].template; }); In my index.html <div ng-controller="HeaderCtrl"> <div ng-include src="template.url"></div> </div> Does ngInclude only except values off of the scope?

I do not quite understand when to use a directive and when it would be more appropriate to use nginclude. Take this example: I have a partial, password-and-confirm-input-fields.html , that is the html for entering and confirming a password. I use this both under signup-page and under change-password-page. Those two pages has a controller each, the partial html has no dedicated controller. Should I use directive or ngInclude for this?
