It would only be possible to test websites using SSI which are stored on your HDD if you have a web server such as Apache running locally on your computer. SSI works because the webserver application sees the file extension .shtml and recognizes that it should replace any of the special SSI comment tags with the contents of the file to which they point. Without a program that will parse the HTML file properly, SSI are just a bunch of useless comment tags.
