Ha! "SSI in a way that it was not intended" .. what babes can do if they don't know any better ;-)

www.hinduismtoday.com is presently completely dynamically generated using SSI, top to bottom.

Only later were we told by someone else "tisk, tisk... really that's not what SSI is for." But we can't find any hard logic behind not using it for this purpose... i.e. I suppose that making one's web site page generation depending on system wide resident httpd services over which you have no control, instead of completely under the control of one's own dBase or CGI's is considered "bad form." ??

But, FYI, it works just great and very fast to compared to other .asp or .js built sites. And no one yet has given a good reason not to do this, if it serves well, which it does.

But, Brian wrote: "It seems there's not much that SSI offers which couldn't be done by Rev itself in the first place...." Agreed.. .much simpler than hacking Apache's config, over which we have no control anyway, since this is a virtual site on a server where we can't touch Apache settings.

This is what I would expect to happen. Not sure, but I think you are trying to use SSI in a way that it was not intended or cannot be used.
