I need to know how to do SSI. I put the include in, but it didn't do anything. I also need to know how to make my domain go to my page instead of the directory. Any help would be nice..... Thanks!

Check out Lissa's page (http://www.lissaexplains.com/html6.shtml#php) on SSI.

I also need to know how to make my domain go to my page instead of the directory.

You need to have an index.* in your main directory. Whether it be .htm, .php, or .shtml. If you don't have a page named index.* then your directory will show up. Since you are trying to use SSI, then you will probably want to name it index.shtml.

ok, I had already read the page on lissa's site about SSI. That's how I knew about the include. Both the files have the .shtml extension, but it isn't including what's in the other file like it's supposed too. I figured I just did something wrong.

I guess I should have known that it needed to be named index.* since I used to be on geocities. Thanks!

Does your server support SSI if not they won't work

Actually I think I figured out the problem to everything, lol. I didn't have the files in the www folder. Sorry, I'm new to this whole web host thing, so I wasn't sure where to put stuff. I'm so you to using free geocities. Thanks anyway everyone!
