[Mailman-Users] Mailman question: How do I use server side includes inadministrator interface option: Edit General List Information Page

2002-01-30 Thread Ed Reiss


I unsuccessfully tried using server side includes to create custom headers 
and footers in a Mailman list information page using the Administrative Edit 
General List Information Page option. 

After doing this, the includes did show up in the source for the page, but they 
were never interpreted - they had no effect. The includes work on other 
dynamically generated pages at the web site in question. They are:

!--#include virtual=/components/bottombar.html --
and !--#include virtual=/components/topbar.html --

Any way around this problem?

Thanks for your help.

Ed

Hey Ed,

Since you didn't specify, are you using Apache?
Or what web server?

If you're using Apache, you need to tell it to
allow SSI.  If you don't, they won't be interpreted.

If you're not using Apache, sorry, dunno.

Hey Benny,

Yes - I'm using Apache, and SSI had been enabled. (See my note below
about the includes working on other pages.) However, I just noticed that
the Addhandlers in the configuration file are for .html and .htm extensions,
while the address of the listinfo page has no extension. So, I went to the
page you suggested and then added 

XBitHack on

first to a .htaccess file, then to the configuration file. Neither worked.

Regards,
Ed Reiss

But SSI generally doesn't work in CGI programs, which the python files are.
The two are basically mutually exclusive.

What I did was use mod_layout (www.tangent.org) instead of SSI. Since it's
an embedded module, it can act in front of things SSI can't.
