I don't know what I'm doing with SSI but I have a very basic page that I have created for three dealers of a product. Each time a new dealer wants one, I have to manually edit the "template" html page (the first guy's page that I keep amending for each new dealer) and make changes for domain name (for title), phone, links, company description paragraph, etc. for the new dealer I am creating.
I figured I could use SSI. As a test, I wrote a phone.inc text file and all that is in it is a phone number, that's it. I duped my html page and put an SSI include statement, where I wanted the phone number to go. As a test. (This was within a H2 heading tag, if that matters.)
I uploaded both to the same HTDOCS directory. I called up www.mysite.com/index.shtml and the page came up but it was missing the phone number.
I renamed the original, index.html to index_old.html in case there was some kind of conflict going on and then just called up www.mysite.com and same thing happened (no phone number).
If I hit www.mysite.com and the index is a .shtml file, if SSI is working on my server, it will pull up that index page, right? Or what else could be wrong. Thanks for help.
