any .htacess experts here ?
 

anyone got an idea what could prevent from simple include in html file from not working ?

<!--#include virtual='/c/xxx.html'-->

on old server it showed the content of xxx.html on the page , now it's just showing this line .

The htaccess file stayed the same .

anyone knows which specification should be written in the .htaccess file for this to work ?
and i can't rename it to .shtml

Well first off do you have server side includes allowed on the server? Server admin has to allow ssi or there's not much you can do except use an iframe.

Put something like this in your htaccess to parse other file types

AddHandler server-parsed .shtml .shtm .htm .html

You may also need this in your htaccess
Options +Includes
This tells Apache that you want to permit files to be parsed for SSI directives.

on shtml file it will work but i want to allow this to work on html also

That solved the problem , thanks :thumbsup

I knew i had to have something like this , i already had :

AddType text/x-server-parsed-html .html



what's this line for then ?

Nice! glad you fixed it. Shit like that will drive you nuts!
