SSI (Server Side Includes) - Can't see when using "Preview in Browser"

Hi,
Using Dreamweaver CS3
I can see all my includes in Design View, but not when I "Preview in Browser"... Any way to see them also when I preview in browser?
Best regards
CB

That worked very well, thank you so much~~

Spry accordion widget - SSI (server side include) as content in the panel

After having inserted the following command <!--# include file = "content2.asp" -> in the accordion Panel Content I get an error in Dreamweaver - every time I open the file. See the error in the attached picture.
Once all files are uploaded to the server it works apparently without problems or script errors.
Is there anyone who can help me to use SSI "server side include" as content in accordion panels?

Thanks for your reply.
The fault lay in the SSI file. This file contained these tag:
</ html>
And of course the tag </ html> generate an error if the tag is inserted in the content of the accordion panel via ssi file.

SSI (Server Side Include)

Hi folks.
I have installed J2EE SDK 1.4_03 and I'm interested in using it to develop my personal website locally on my PC. At a later date I wish to upload it to a paid web host.
The reason I have chosen to run a server rather than just accessing html files directly from my hard-drive is because I would like to utilize SSI (Server Side Include). That's really all. I'm not really interested in doing anything too interactive between the viewer and the server! Not yet anyway.
I have found various information online but nothing is working. I'm sure there is information that I am missing or something further I need to do to actually initiate it. The information I have found says to un-comment the various section in the file default-web.xml located in this folder c:\Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\config for this to be activated globally. Below is a copy and pasted chuck of text that I have un-commented within this file..
Secondly I'm putting my test html pages in the folder C:\Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\docroot using the include syntax that I have found all over the net such as  & others.
I can not get the thing to work. I'm guessing there is more to it. For a start... am I putting my html pages in the correct folder for this to work? And Is there something I need to do to activate the ssi servlet? The only reason I'm putting my test pages in this folder is because the page at http://localhost:8080 says that I can overwrite the index file to replace it. Is this the correct place for this?
Also this class has me thinking... org.apache.catalina.servlets.SsiInvokerServlet Am I suppose to download this separately and put it somewhere? If so where is it? And where do I put it? I am horribly confused and I can not find any further information on this.
If anyone could help me out on this topic I'd really appreciate it. btw, I'm a beginner in this area... I'd really just like to server html pages with ssi features at this point. Nothing more. The server seems to be working.
Thanks,
Tane

You can always use jsp:include or Apache tiles or something similar. I have not used SSI in a while, but you may want to check out those technologies, as they offer more than simply includes.

SSI Server Side Includes searchable?

I'm creating a site that uses Server Side Includes to pull
content into pages. The client wants to include a Search function
to the site. My question is can a search function not only find the
SSI pages but pull them up directly?
Please see
http://www.trainride.org/mtm_index.shtml
The 2nd line of the bottom navigation are links that pull
content into the page with server side includes. Is there a way to
search and load the content pulled in by the server side includes?
Any help would REALLY be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Melissa,
I believe that the search engines create their indexes using
spiders
that walk through all of the browser links in your site. The
content of
your SSIs get embedded into your page on the server, so there
is no
actual link by the time the page gets to the browser.
So, I think you need to add a hyperlink to your SSI pages
some (maybe
hidden) place in your site so the spiders will find them.
HTH,
Randy

What language should I use if I am a beginner to using SSI (server side includes)?

I want to start using server side includes and understand how to also code them by hand. What is the easiest way to begin? Do I just php?
-Kate

First question you need to ask your Host is if they support server-side includes and which document extensions you can use.
Common extensions:
.shtml, .shtm, .php, .asp, .cf.

Are Server-Side Includes in Dreamweaver ok to use?

Hi, I'm considering using the built-in feature, 'Server-Side Includes' in Dreamweaver CS3. Can anyone tell me if this is ok to use, or is there a better way of approaching this process?
Many thanks in advance!

Yes, server-side includes are an excellent feature. Just make sure that your server supports them. On many servers, you need to change the file name extension from .html to .shtml.
The other thing to remember is that a server-side include should just be a fragment of a page. It should not include a DOCTYPE declaration or duplicate <html>, <head>, or <body> tags.

Server-Side Include Issue - Please Help

I am having trouble using server-side includes in
Dreamweaver. When I use the SSI to insert the header file, the
header document shows up on the page in design view, but I cannot
click anything. The cursor turns into a "no sign" no matter where
it is on the page. I cannot see anything but the header document,
and I cannot click outside of it or anywhere else in design view.
When I test the whole document in a web browser it actually seems
to work just fine. I see the header and the other text on the page
(unlike in dreamweaver, I cannot see anything but the header). Also
in Dreamweaver code view, the php tags and the included filename
are in red. This is the code for the test document:

What does the code look like in header.php? Does it have
<html>, <head>
and <body> tags? It should not.

When i add long text it effects the width of other server side include

hi
i have included some pages to my index page in a cell of a
table by server side include
when the text is too long it narrows the other text !!!
although the texts are in table cells !!!
how can i prohibit this effect ?no one of them effect the
other
thanks in advance.

It would be good to see your site to tell for sure.
There are several things that can cause this effect. Are the
included
tables wider than the cell on your index page? Do any of the
included pages
have images that might be wider than your target cell? Does
your target
table have a defined height?
Your include page should have only text with no wrappers
(tables, etc.) no
specific height, styles, or images. (yes you can include
images but you have
a whole lot of other stuff to consider) If your included text
is in a cell
with a width of say 600 but your target cell has a width of
400, the include
will widen the target cell to 600 wile narrowing adjoining
cells because it
is trying to keep your target table to it's predefined width.
Height is non supported in most browsers but in some will
cause your text to
widen a cell before it lengthens it so get rid of that in
your target table
if it's there.
If one of these ideas doesn't fix your problem, post a link
to your site and
to the include page so we can better tell what's going on.

Dreamweaver previews first Server Side Include Only (SSI)

Dreamweaver CC and 2014 preview the first Server Side Include (SSI) only, even if the Adobe extension is installed (Using the SSI extension in Dreamweaver to create page headers | Adobe Developer Connection)
How do I set Dreamweaver to preview multiple (more than one) SSI's?
Example Code:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>


</body>
</html>
The code above will preview the text in "Content.shtml" but will not display the text in "content2.shtml".
For troubleshooting purposes, I have reduced the content in each file to only single lines of basic text.
Please advise. Thanks.
Update:
Dreamweaver Live View will show all of the server side includes. However the "Design View" and "Preview in Browser" will only show the one ssi.
The following Preference settings are enabled:
-Preview using temporary file
-Show contents of included file
Update 2:
I discovered that server side includes have been removed from the Dreamweaver interface, inferred from this article: A Look at the Modernized Dreamweaver CC : Adobe Dreamweaver Team Blog. If Server Side Includes were removed, can they be added again using the Server Behavior extension?

The issue is fixed in Dreamweaver 2014.1

Problem in Server side includes using Tomcat

Problem in Server side includes using Tomcat:
I am trying out small programs in servlet.
I get one example program for server side includes from net.
The code is:
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Times!</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>

The current time in London is!!! :
<SERVLET CODE="CurrentTime" codebase="../servlet">
<PARAM NAME="zone" VALUE="GMT">
</SERVLET>

</BODY>
</HTML>
I placed this test.shtml file in tomcat-home/webapps/ROOT folder and i kept the servlet in WEB-INF/classes folder.
I renamed the servlets-ssi.jar and i removed the comments for SSI in web.xml file.
When i run the servlet separately, i am getting the correct result. But if i run shtml file with the URL : http://localhost:8080/Test.shtml,
i am getting the result as:
The current time in London is!!! :
It is not invoking servlet program.
CAN ANYONE HELP ON THIS!
Thanks.

Thanks...as u said I tried putting dir & found that
my file was saved as Ch1Servlet.java.txt instead for
Ch1Servlet.java......So that was a problem.Now I'm
able to compile.Oh, yeah. Notepad will do that to you. I think when you save in Notepad if you put quotes around the name "Whatever.java" then it won't add the .txt.
But on compiling I'm getting the following error
package java.servlet.* does not exist
package java.servlet.http.* does not exist
package java.io.* does not exist
Do u the reason for this??? The servlet stuff is java[b]x.servlet. For the io stuff, I don't know, I'd have to see your code. Either you have a typo or a corrupt installation.

"Server-side includes" equivalent in DW CC

I am a long-time HTML coder, having been hand-writing HTML since the days of Mosaic. However, I am a complete newbie with DreamWeaver CC. I have gone through the entire "Bayside Beat" tutorial.
I am used to using "server-side includes" to include common sections of code on all of my pages. For example, I include this at the top of every body:

and this at the end:

Following along with the "Bayside Beat" tutorial, I see how to copy those sections from one page to another. However, what happens if I need to make a change in one of those sections?
For example, if I were to add a 6th page, I would need to edit the menu, and then manually propogate that change to every page. Or, next year, when I want to change the copyright to "2014", I again need to manually edit every page.
Is there any way to say "this section is to be identical on every page that includes it, and automatically propogate any changes to all of those pages"?

I can't remember when Adobe loused this up. Probably in DW CS6.
My workaround is to create my own SSI code in my Custom Snippets folder. I have one for .shtml/.asp pages and another for .php pages. One click inserts the code.

<?php require_once('includes/my-include-file.php'); ?>
Once inserted, click on the include statement in code view and you'll see a small properties box where you can browse to the actual file or Edit the include file. It takes a lot longer to explain than it does to do it. Bottom line, it's quick and you don't need any 3rd party extensions.

Server-Side Includes in weblogic server 5.1

 Hi,
 I tried Server-Side Includes examples in weblogic server 5.1 thru .shtml file.
 I am able to load the .shtml file but its not loading the included servlet. But
 I am able to load the included servlet alone separately.
 Somebody can be assist me what I have to do?
 I am using WebApplication WAR structure for my application.
 ex: http://localhost:7001/esp/hellooWorld -- loading the servlet
 http://localhost:7001/esp/html/ServletInclude.shtml -- not loading servlet
 where 'esp' name of the WebApplication
 The .shtml file code is given below
 <html>
 <body>
 <servlet name=hellooWorld>
 </servlet>
 </body>
 </html>
 Looking forward for some help
 Thanks


 Your WebLogic doesn't know it's supposed to be doing server-side includes. Make
 sure you have .shtml registered/enabled - see the docs.

Server-side includes in cs5

have used all previous versions of dw. no prior problem with server-side includes. now, they are not showing up in design view. Yes, I have marked preferences to include hidden items/server side includes. any thoughts anyone?

I set up a static test site. It has no testing server defined - just a local site. In that site I have two files -
1. include-test.html
2. /_inc/test.html
Their contents are -
INCLUDE-TEST.SHTML
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
This is a test of SSI. The following paragraph is an HTML include -

</body>
</html>
TEST.HTML
Ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Sunt in culpa ullamco laboris nisi quis nostrud exercitation.
When I look at Design view for include-test.html, I can see the contents of the include file, and I can see it listed as a related file below the filename tabs:
So, I'm at a loss....

Trouble Testing Server Side Includes using personal web sharing

I am using the book "Standard complant websites using dreamweaver 8" One of the exercises has me testing that server side includes are enabled by creating two files ssi_test.shtml and hello.html. I have placed these two files in the documents subfolder which web server is the main folder.
Since I only see a blank page when I test, the book says I need to tweak the Apache configuration to enable SSI. It says to open httpd.conf file (which I can not find) . I am suppose to insert the following lines: AddType text/html .shtml and Addhandler server-parsed .shtml
Where is this file httpd.conf file located?
How do I modify it?
Thanks for your support

It is in /private/etc/httpd directory.
You will need a file editor that knows how to authenticate or to learn some basics with the command line and unix to use sudo to edit the file.
<pre>sudo pico /private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf</pre> is where I recommend you start if you don't know emacs or vi or another of the fine unix editing tools that are provided...
An article that was intended to fix a different problem - but has all the steps you need to locate the terminal application, learn about sudo, etc... is http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301580
