Yes, I figured out that I had not set the 'Options' directive correctly.
I corrected it, and got SSI working. However, I now have a slightly
different situation. I wanted to get the date formatted correctly on my
site. I tried this, but it does not work correctly:

<!--#config timefmt="%m/%d/%y" --> <!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" -->

the date is still displayed in the long format, along with the time. I
do not understand why. I copied this directly from a site that was
demonstrating how to use SSI to display the date or time in any format
desired. For some reason, it does not work.
