server side includes[newbie]

Hi all,
I am trying to get ssi to work with my already functioning webserver. the
problem is whenever i go to the page with the include on it, it doesnt
appear! I have enabled the module and added include to the options part of
the whole website and renamed the default website to index.shtml.
What else is there to be done??

The whole page, or just the included stuff?

These lines were commented out in my default httpd.conf

AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml

Include them by deleting the comment token.

the includes, could it be that i need to rename all the pages to shtml not
just index.shtml??
as for those uncomments, i already uncommented them....if that makes
sense...

Yes, you will need to either name your files with an .shtml extension
or add more extensions to the list of those which go through the
INCLUDES filter. You can add 'html' to the list if you like, but
beware that then *every* HTML document served will go through the SSI
engine which will use more system resources per request than just
copying the file directly.

Best of luck,
-Claire

My website isnt exactly for public use, its more just a hobby at the moment,
so should i just make all html documents get parsed for ssi?

It shouldn't do any harm.

Good luck,

(Please don't reply above the quoted message. Aside from the usual
reasons, my newsreader also trimmed off the quote thinking it was part
of your signature!)

so can i just change the filter .shtml to .html or should i add the .html
extension? (i have both page extensions)

Just add 'html' after 'shtml'. The filter directive accepts multiple
extensions at the end.

Cool thank you so much Claire and Kenneth
