ssi including file help

[Jakke PNG]

Can I include a file from another domain, on a page? It's on the same server. If I can, can someone share how please.

Don't think you can with ssi - Am pretty certain it has to be from the same domain

php?

There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to. An ssi call uses the server path to the file, not the web path. Domains aren't an issue one way or the other.

Just put the full path to the file like this /usr/home/httpd/www/domain.com/file.name

should work as long as its on the same server.

I got an

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

with full path.

Did you check the log to see what the error was?

file
The value is a path relative to the directory containing the current document being parsed. It cannot contain ../, nor can it be an absolute path. Therefore, you cannot include files that are outside of the document root, or above the current document in the directory structure. The virtual attribute should always be used in preference to this one.
