SUMMARY
If you need to use server-side includes with an extension other
than the default specified by Microsoft Internet Information Server (.stm
files), you need to add a new mime type for the extension by editing the
registry.
MORE INFORMATION
NOTE: Remember to stop all the Internet Services and then restart the
Internet Services after making changes to the registry.
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that
may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot
guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor
can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
For information about how to edit the registry, view the "Changing Keys And
Values" Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) or the "Add and Delete
Information in the Registry" and "Edit Registry Data" Help topics in
Regedt32.exe. Note that you should back up the registry before you edit it.
Perform the following steps:
- Start the Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Go to the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\InetInfo\
Parameters\MimeMap
- Select Edit and click Add Value. The Value Name represents the extension
for the new mime type. An example of a mime type for .shtml is
text/html,shtml,,h : REG_SZ
- Click OK. No string is required.
- Click OK.
After the extension has been added, you need to change the registry entry
for the server-side include extension.
- Start the Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Go to the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3Svc\Parameters
- In the right pane, double-click ServerSideIncludesExtension to edit the
string value. Replace the current default value (.stm) with (.shtml),
that should be identical to the new mime mapping you created. Make sure
the ServerSideIncludesEnabled value is set to 1.
