Re: Are SSI's too good to be true?

that would be three disk access incidents instead of one for your HTML.  The
increased time is not of significant note, however, when compared to the
maintenance benefits. PHP and Perl also slow down "load time" because of the
need to perform calculations before returning the page...but I surely
wouldn't want to replace them with 4000 static pages that cover every
eventuality!

OK...
the more I look into this thing the better it looks.  I can use a header and
a footer include on all of my pages?  And TOTALLY change the look of the
site just by editing two files?

There HAS to be a down side!  Can anyone tell me what it is?  Is there
anything that can make them blow up?  Do they load slower?
