Help with Server side includes

[guido174]

Does anyone know how to use headers and footers thru includes?
<!--#include virtual="header.html" -->
<!--#include virtual="footer.html" -->
I'm running on Windows XP so I can't use the XBitHack Directive.
Thanks for any help

i never really use ssl, so here is something in php that should do it for you.

Code: Select all

<?php include 'your_file_name.html'; ?>

that will do it. as far as ssl ???

Thanks MAGnUm!
Your solution is probably correct but I can't use it. Our main web site uses apache for linux and my local test site uses apache for windows. I don't want to have two different sets of code to maintain.
Thanks anyway for your response.

yes it will work just place all of u=your includes into a single dir and have you host config php.ini on your linux host to point to that include dir. includes search for the files in a couple of dirs the one the file is in and the ones you specify in php.ini. hope this helps. your web host should know what i am talking about if you dont, if not find one that does. good luck.

Help, please! So and I tried to use SSI on XAMPP (Windows XP) but shtml-file doesn't work. What I have to change in httpd.conf?

Please, don't advise me something other (PHP etc) but exactly for SSI

Ended! I've found it!

HTTPD.CONF
You have to activate this thing (to delete #)

Code: Select all

AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml

Then add that code below

Code: Select all

<Directory "[directory_for_users'_sites]">
   Options Includes
</Directory>

Example. I have XAMPP in E:/xampp
Users' sites are here: E:/users

My code

Code: Select all

<Directory "/users">
   Options Includes
</Directory>
