My site suports SSI but it requires me to change html files to shtml. Is there any software that I can use to change all the html extensions in my harddrive/server quickly?

I don't know. I'm about ready to go through the same thing. So, I'll be interested to find out, too.

On a windows PC go to Start->Run. Enter in Command and press ok.
Then type cd d:\websitefolderhere where D: is the drive your folder is on and websitefolderhere is the path i.e. e:\web_design\media\projects\current
Then once in that directory you type:
ren "*.html" "*.shtml"
The quotes are necessary for the command interpretor to use long file names.
That will rename every file in the current directory. On Unix systems you would use the mv command so it would be mv *.html *.shtml

Why bother? Just create a .htaccess file with this command in it:
AddHandler server-parsed .html
and put it in the directory with you html files. Then the server will parse html files as well as shtml.

Not a very effective use of your server resources if you also have standard HTML files without SSI in your site.

Wayne,
Just the other day, I read someone's praises for you. They are fully warranted! Thanks a lot!

Thank You.
One of the reasons I like these forums so much is that I learn something new every day and from every post I read. I post as often as I can to give back some things that I have learned and to share with others. After working with computers for over 15 years I know how tough some things might be for newcomers and I wish to make it a little easier. Often they also teach me a new perspective to old problems that can often result easier to use solutions. I use this approach with everything in my work whether its Windows and MS-Office training classes, HTML design or C++ and VB programming.

wluke,
I generally agree with you on topics in this formu, but I gotta respond to this. Granted, every case is individual and you have to balance a lot of variables, but most of what I see is people using SSI for headers and footers, in which case, virtually every page served needs to be parsed. If you're using SSI chances are that your going to parse all of your pages anyway.
So, for someone who has a majority of parsed pages, the load on the server is there anyway, whether the files are named .shtml or .html.
And for today's servers, how much of a load is that anyway? I don't know of any IPP that carges by CPU cycles, so I just don't think the overhead arguement washes.

Your welcome to use your server how you wish. I just made a comment. Also most providers have a clause in their contracts that they can cancel your account for excessive use. This usually translates to using more than 6% of CPU cycles. Some of the newer operating systems allow the administrator to restrict your processing allotment.
