Server-side includes. I can't turn the SSI on on the server without using that suffix (which IMO is really really stupid of the programmers not to support) because it'll drag the speed of the server way down (because Apache will load the SSI module every time an HTML page is served regardless of the extension). -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
