Help with enabling SSI !

I installed Apache 1.3 on my PC for debugging purposes,I enabled SSI by doing teh follwing:
de-commented the lines in the server configuration file which state:
AddType text/html .shtml
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml

And the add 'Includes' to the 'Options' directive:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews Includes

But the problem is that when I add a SSI directive to my webpage,nothing happens,can anyone help me with this please?

Regards.

Have you restarted apache?
