SSI...
What Is SSI and what does SSI do? Server Side Includes. The ability to include files from the server inside an HTML document by placing tags in the HTML file that link to those files. Using server-side includes makes it unnecessary to include multiple copies of the same information in the HTML file. SSI's (Server Side Includes) allows users to create documents which provide basic and complex information to clients on the fly. Such information can include the current date, the file's last modification date, and the size or last modification of other files. Template? This is an example of a webpage template for SSI: <head> <title>Example of SSI</title> </head> <!--#include file="layout_top.html"--> <h1> Example of SSI </h1> "The layout of this page is fully controlled by a common file. There are no BODY, COLOR or TABLE tags in this page." <!--#include file="layout_bottom.html"--> </html> "Where layout_top.html has" <body bgcolor="red"> <table> <tr> <td valign="top"> side bar</td> <td valign="top"> "and layout_bottom.html has" </td> </tr> </table> |
