| As a side comment (and please forgive me my pedantry) you don't need to
| have the .asp file extension for simple html includes. The default file
| extensions in IIS for static pages to be parsed for pre-processing
| directives IIRC are .stm and .shtml. If you have a static site with
| SSIs, it will improve performance slightly to name the files .stm/.shtml
| instead of .asp.


Just checked my host's support files .. and they don't list .stm nor .shtml
files as default.  I thought those were just for Apache servers?
