Worth checking if you can override the settings with an htaccess file, if you don't want to rename all the files from ".html" to ".shtml" just to enable SSI. It is at this point you realise that you should never have got the original site indexed with the ".html" extensions ;) Just as "www." is unnecessary because what else will you serve over HTTP, the ".html" extension is a silly idea because the HTTP protocol describes the content. The people who built the web technology thought about all this stuff (you can make Apache serve the files without the extensions easily enough) but then handed it over to folks like me who then helped make the mess that the web currently is though imperfect understanding of what it all was. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
