title: Why Won't Server Side Includes Work?
body: <p>I have been trying to use Server Side Includes on my website to save time writing code and be able to change site wide elements quickly and easily.</p>
  
  <p>However i cannot seem to get them to work, either locally or on the Server.</p>
  
  <p>I have set them up as .html files (with only the code needed and no html or body tags) in a "ssi" folder and am calling them in the appropriate locations in my .shtml files with:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!--#include virtual="/ssi/&lt;filename&gt;.html" --&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but still nothing.  Any ideas?</p>
