Problem solved. I was opening the webpage directly in my browser as a file instead of using http://localhost/file1.shtml. In doing this, it didn't get processed by IIS, so the includes were shown as comments. Once I used http, it worked fine. Duh!!!

When I bring up File1.shtml in the browser I don't see anything. I do a view source and see the source of File1.shtml, but I do not see File2.htm in there. It just does not include the file.

I verified, I do have POST. I typed PUT incorrectly in my posting above.

So, if the html is correct and the mappings in my IIS are correct, then what could be stopping it from working on my machine?

Above sample works fine.

What is not working? Can you provide more info?

Verbs Limited to: GET, POST - it should be POST and not PUT

Can you verify?

SSI not working...Help...Please???

I've been knocking my head against the wall for hours trying to get this to work., but can't.

I have a simple html file called file1.shtml. Here is what is in it.

<html>
<head>
<title>This is file1.shtml</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

file2.htm contains the following.

Pretty straight forward. I tried changing file extensions to .htm, .html, .shtm, .shtml all without any luck. I tried using include File instead of Include Virtual, without luck.

The mappings in IIS 5.1 running on my computer are as follows.

Executabe: C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\ssinc.dll
Extension: .shtml (this also exists for .shtm extension)
Verbs Limited to: GET, PUT
Both Script engine and Check that file exists are checked off.

Can anyone help figure this out? I don't see why it wouldn't work.
