Hi to all you UK folk.

Wonder if you can help with this...

I need to move a site to a new UK-based host with the following features:

1) Allows SSI to be used on normal .html pages (not having to change the extension to .shtml).

2) Allows the ExecCGI command to be used

3) Good uptime and support naturally :)

If you use someone who fits this bill, could you let me know? It will save a hell of a lot of trawling around, and this is something I need to do quickly. Cost not that important.

Many thanks

Cy

A large number of apache hosts can simply be configured to support ssi via .html extensions, and as such, I can't think of any who advertise it.

Its as simple as:

AddType text/html .htm .html .shtm .shtml .sht
AddHandler server-parsed .htm .html .shtml .sht .shtm
in an .htaccess file, in most cases.

(Ok this didn't actually help you find a host, but it opens your options up further)

Thanks WibbleWobble, didn't realise it was that easy. That has worked with my existing host, but they don't allow the ExecCGI command. Looks like I've found someone now though.

Cheers
