Getting SSI (server-side include) files working in Apache and HTML

[ArtJervis]

Apache does not seem to be processing "includes" in my HTML files without configuring the .htaccess file. And I can seem to get .htaccess configured properly.

 

For example, I want to include a copyright footer at the bottom of my HTML pages using this command:

<!-- #include file="myfooter.html" -->

 

It only appears when I modify the .htaccess file to include:

 

Options +Includes

AddHandler server-parsed .html

 

But unfortunately, the TOP of the HTML page then starts including this statement:

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

 

This should be SUCH a SIMPLE thing to do, but I've already spent hours hacking.

 

Thanks ahead for your help!

I would suggest opening a support ticket regarding this if you haven't already. We will need to review your account details so we can access the correct logs and see what specific error is happening.
