View this page here:
http://www.hawksontherocks.com/

The navigation is an include virtual SSI file. This is an index.html page.

I'm setting up a new site and I'm having trouble getting the includes to work and I'm reading everywhere that all SSI files need to be in a .shtml. How could I have gotten the first one to work considering it's an html file? Can someone explain this to me? Are shtml files ok to use throughout my entire site if they all share the same navigation?

I don't have an htaccess file for the hawksontherocks.com site either - and it still works! Very confusing.

Little help!

The extension is irrelevant, any extension can be used for SSI, CGI or any other scripting language.
It all depends on the server configuration.
Ask you host for more information on the subject.
