| Description | SHTML (Server Side Includes HTML) is a file extension used for HTML files that contain server-side scripting commands. These files are processed by the web server before they are sent to the client's web browser. The server-side scripting commands allow for dynamic content to be included in the HTML file, such as database content or other dynamic information. |
| Technical details | SHTML files can include server-side includes (SSI) commands that are executed by the web server. These commands can include the insertion of the contents of another file, the output of environment variables, or the execution of scripts or programs.
SHTML files are similar to HTML files in their syntax and structure, but they include additional features that allow for dynamic content to be included. SHTML files can be viewed and edited with any text editor, and can be served by any web server that supports server-side includes. |
