About CSS...
It can work at two fronts: inline(formated inside the html file - or
whatever:php, ,jsp, asp, cfml... -) and outline, linked outside the file,
just making some like <LINK rel="stylesheet"
href="directoryfromthefile/stylefile.css" type="text/css">, and you don´t
have to make changes to enable it on the httpd.conf

Fernando Wendt

Don't know about CSS - it's up to the browser to handle the style
definitions. Nothing to do with apache. Are the definitions in a
separate file? Is the browser succeeding to download it? (check the
access_log).

As for SSI, you need to allow includes and add a handler, e.g.

# Allow Server-Side Includes
<Directory /path/to/your/shtml>
AddHandler server-parsed shtml
Options +Includes
</Directory>

PS - Apache 1.3.3? That went out with the ark - 1.3.23 is now available,
you know!

That's what I thought, but when I view the page on my local machine the
CSS do no work at all.. but when I upload the same file to the actaul
web server (also a red ha 7.1 box) they work like a charm. It's just
very odd...maybe I need to play with the paths in the href command for
the style sheets.....but I set the directory structure up just as it is
on the web server it runs from...which is making me wonder why it';s
still now working

Hang on - what do you mean by "view the page on my local machine". Are
you using the web-server? i.e. are you going through a URL? You are not,
by any chance, using File -> Open Page -> Browse... If you are, then
watch out - all internal links will have to be relative in this case and
this can get messy. I would recommend always to use absolute paths (e.g.
href="/foo/bar.html" instead of href="../foo/bar.html") and always
browse the site via a webserver - never browse the pages directly from
the filesystem.

Your problem is certainly that the browser cannot find the file
containing the CSS definitions (check in the access_log and error_log to
see what it's looking for). Remember that CSS application is entirely
client-side - the server can only supply the file, it is up to the
browser how to apply the styles (see how far you get with Lynx, for
example...)

Rgds,

Owen Boyle.
