Re: [cobalt-users] SSI Question

[Lee Joramo <ljoramo.list@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are several ways to enable ssi on apache.

The method that I took was to use the XBitHack. This allows the web server
to server .html files as ssi files. (Other methods involve using the .shtml
extension, to which I prefer to not expose my site vistors).

In your .htaccess file add a line:

XBitHack On


Then set the owners executable bit for the file. For example:

chmod 744 index.html
