SSI and file types

[davehaz]

howdy,
I am new to SSI and have just started messing around with it, all i can get it to work with is .shtml files, how can I get it to work with .php , .html, and .htm file extensions.

tia.

you can't get SSI to work with anything else unless you can modify the server settings. There is no need to use SSI with PHP. PHP can do way more than simple SSI tags can do.

i had to use SSI to make directories and change permissions, the host had all the php exec,system,etcs shut down due to security reasons they say, however they do allow the SSI cmd directive to work. I figured it out and got it working. thanks.
