Server-side includes
Pre-process documents before serving
e.g. Apache's SSI module:
<!--#include virtual="/templ/head.html" -->
<... document goes here ...>
<!--#include virtual="/templ/foot.html" -->
Notes:
Typically deployed by putting common content into separate files which are then included.
Needs authors to start from a common template.
There's a common problem of arranging to include the document's title (and sometimes other data) inside a standard heading.
SSI's capabilities are limited.
