This new version gives us some new commands for http documents which are very neat, including the ability to run shell commands and put the output of the commands into the HTML document. The way it works is that the server reads your HTML document, runs any commands, and replaces the output of those commands and then sends your modified HTML document to the client program that requested it. These new commands are called "server side includes", and here is an http address where you can read all about them: http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/docs/tutorials/includes.html Here is an HTML page to get you started...

Correct... that was an illustrative example. > I have one more question about the way HEAD handles it. > I looks to me that one needs a subdirectory ~user/www and all the html files > have to be there. But URL points ~user/*.html instead of ~user/www/*.html. > Is there a specific reason for doing this? Yes, The reason is that the server maps all requests for ~user to the user's home directory in /home/user/www. This is done because most people would prefer a subdirectory for all their www files (as it can get most messy if they are in the top level of the users home directory). Now it is pretty much a standard that when you use http to access a site, you can access it by doing http://site-name/~user. There is no point to adding a /www to the end of that because the server can map it for you. > What are the differences if I select in "Open URL" > http://hea-www.harvard.edu/~dmm/sample.html goes through our httpd daemon on head-cfa. Tries to load the file /home/dmm/www/sample.html. This fails as I do not have this file in my ~/www directory. > file://hea-www.harvard.edu/home/dmm/www/sample.html, or tries to find the file /home/dmm/www/sample.html in the anonymous ftp area on head-cfa. This will fail, as there are no home directories available through anonymous ftp. > file://cfa.harvard.edu/home/dmm/www/sample.html This will not work, as cfa.harvard.edu does not allow anonymous ftp logins at all. ======== David Meleedy Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory dmm@head-cfa.harvard.edu 60 Garden Street, MS 70 Phone: 617 495 7252 Cambridge, MA 02138 USA
