Ok here are my questions: (THANK YOU SO MUCH)

1. Should my .shtml file have the <html><head> etc. tags in it or should the .txt file have those. Also do I put the .txt file in the body of my .shtml file.

2. Can I put CSS in the .txt file or does that have to go in each page seperatley?

Please AIM at lilchici13. I am really in need of help. Thank you soo much.

whatever you put into the "included" sections should have whatever should be showing within their sections being called to.

step1.
type out your whole page like a normal web page coding. no ssi inserts at all.

step2.
take a piece of that coding, save it to a "txt" file. in that spot you took the coding out of, place the ssi insert call.

step3.
keep doing step2 till you are done your desired amount.

the ssi calls will find the txt files and plunk in the coding back into place. this effect may be used for any part of your coding including the very start of the coding area, head, body, ending, whatever. just as long as it will work as a "completed" page after the calls would have inserted all of the txt files back into place.

clear as mud?
