  Re: MI/X (Was: LeoCAD for Linux (Was: Compiling MPD Builder/Splitter for DOS/Win?))
 
(...) I have used the product under NT. It isn't very stable. But it works. The problem is that your apps are looking for fonts that you haven't installed into the X server on the Mac.

  Re: Why are SSIs bad?

Which, if you don't trust your users, is a bad thing. (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Why are SSIs bad?
 
(...) My ISP (io.com) serves .shtml so they expire quickly (I believe but haven't tested), but .html files with the executable file attribute (using XBitHack) are served as if they were static, even with SSI code. I use the XBitHack approach. It's (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Why are SSIs bad?
 
Sproaticus: (...) I am not quite sure what security problems there are with SSI. My main reason for (mostly) not using SSI on published web pages is that I suspect that it means that the pages won't be stored by proxies. Is it possible to make (...)

  Why are SSIs bad?
 
Hey all, I use SSI (server-side includes) a *LOT* on my Web pages. They're extremly powerful and versatile. I'm almost a firm believer.
