[thelist] more SSI questions

Mon Jan 10 16:33:52 CST 2005

I was able to figure out the xhtml issue with the include tag, BUT now
I have more SSI Q's I was hoping somone could help me out with.

I am not very familiar with using SSI's, but I am wishing to use them
in a new site I am developing. I have some questions, some of which
may seem silly to those more familiar with includes.

I am using DW and insert the SSI as such for a footer.

<div id="footer">
<!--#include virtual="../SSI/footer.htm" -->
</div>

I have the footer file on the server in an SSI folder which only
contains the code for the footer code, no <head><body> tags etc. Good
so far?

now...
Do I need to name the file containing the SSI with a .shtml extension
for it to work? and are there any special configurations that need to
be made to the server in order for the SSI to work??

TIA
