Server Side Includes are a _Server_ function... so you'd need a
corresponding Web server running on your local system. SSI has no standard
format, but rather is specific to a particular Web server.
Even within the limitations of the 16-bit operating-system wannabee Win98,
you'll find that a number of Web servers will run, perhaps to a limited
extent, with Win98.

The format of dates for HTTP is quite specifically defined in the HTTP
specification (IETF RFC 2068). It is much more rigidly defined than some
other date formats, such as that accepted for email (per IETF RFC 822).
As to how you process them, that is entirely up to you. A number of Perl
modules work with dates, for example, and several with the format used for
HTTP dates.
