Re: Switch to SSI & have question

I am slowly adding ssi to a 500+ page site.  It's a pain but when I'm done, 
I will be able to do sitewide changes to this site quickly for the first 
time in the five years I've maintained it.  Users of this site have all 
kinds of pages bookmarked so I've had to leave the .html version of each 
page in the directory so that no one gets 'page not found' error 
messages.  I put a link on each page to the new one and an auto 
redirect.  I guess it's not an easy way, but is necessary and maybe someone 
else will know a better way to do this.  You can see one of the old pages 
with a redirect here: http://www.sportsteam.com/basketballjerseys2.html
HTH!
