Re: [cobalt-users] SSI on *.html

Wow, thanks for all the info!

Last question
Can someone verify that this is the correct info to put into the .htaccess file for it to accept .html as a file to be parsed. 

AddHandler server-parsed html
Options +Includes

Do I have to include any other headers for it too work properly?
Would I use this same info in the httpd.conf file too?

Thanks again.

James

I would actually configure this in the VirtualSite of the httpd.conf.

.htaccess is a 'configuration override' file for Apache.  It allows you to
configure a directory 'on the fly' to perform a task.  One such task is
parsing .shtml files.

The user doesn't need your help to create this file, depending on how Apache
is configured.  Which is kind of the whole point of the .htaccess file.
Naturally you can create it for them, but you'll want to let them know that
the file exists and for them to NOT screw around with it if they want their
site to work.
