Server Side Includes

Server side includes (SSI) allows the insertion of dynamic data into .html documents. OmniHTTPd does all of its SSI processing in-memory and sends the correct Content-Length header value.

The following commands are support under this implementation:

#config

Configures the SSI environment. The environment is reset for each SSI document. You can configure the error message, the size format and the time format.

#echo

Inserts the value of a variable. Supported environment variables include:

DOCUMENT_NAME
DOCUMENT_URI
QUERY_STRING_UNESCAPED
DATE_LOCAL
DATE_GMT
LAST_MODIFIED
SERVER_SOFTWARE
SERVER_NAME
GATEWAY_INTERFACE
SERVER_PROTOCOL
SERVER_PORT
REQUEST_METHOD
PATH_INFO
PATH_TRANSLATED
SCRIPT_NAME
QUERY_STRING
REMOTE_HOST
REMOTE_ADDR
AUTH_TYPE
REMOTE_USER
REMOTE_IDENT
CONTENT_TYPE
CONTENT_LENGTH

#exec

Executes a program and inserts its output into the document. Use the cgi keyword for URL-based scripts and the cmd keyword for system commands. Example usage:

<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/yoda.exe"-->
<!--#exec cmd="c:\mystuff\jedi.exe"-->

#flastmod

Returns the date of the last modification to the specified file. Use the virtual keyword for URL-based files and the file keyword for path based files. Example usage:

<!--#flastmod virtual="stuff/extra.txt"-->
<!--#flastmod file="c:\mystuff\extra.txt"-->

#fsize

Inserts the size of a file. Use the virtual keyword for URL-based files and the file keyword for path based files. Example usage:

<!--#fsize virtual="stuff/extra.txt"-->
<!--#fsize file="c:\mystuff\extra.txt"-->

#include

Inserts a file into the document. You may nest documents up to 8 layers. Use the virtual keyword for URL-based includes and the file keyword for path based includes. Example usage:
