Server Side Includes (SSI)

SSIgrab1
« ð

To get SSI working in your Web page you need to have the correct ‘include’ reference inserted. The code for this is <!--#include file="include.inc"--> or <!--#include virtual=”include.inc”--> (the .inc suffix is just a useful convention, not a specific requirement). If you use Dreamweaver, place this in the layout where you want the external file’s data to appear; switch to code view and just type, or choose Server-Side Includes from Script Objects in the Insert menu. The correct path to the file where it will live on the server must be used - see the text below for details.
