Enabling SSI

[Seth Dimbert]

Joe, your code didn't work either. :( But, again, I can see the include statement in the doc 
source. Does that indicate that the server is not parsing?

Having worked with SSI's, loks like your line up there is incorrect.

You trying to get.. Say.. Index.shtml to run from /var/www/htdocs/ ?

If so, the virtual include should look something like this:

<!--#include virtual="cgi-bin/news/news.txt" -->

Reason why is because Apache doesn't recognize the /var/www directory from the web interface, but 
in PHP it does.  CGI and SHTML don't work in that vasion, at least that's the way I was looking at 
it.. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Try the command I put up, and see if it works... It ought to, since it worked for me before :)

Hope this helps, man..
