SHTML files are regular HTML files that make use of Server-Side Includes. In some server configurations, the special file extension is required to instruct the server to parse the file for SSI code.
If Firefox doesn't recognize the file type, it is likely the MIME type is incorrect.
Try this Addons
Hi,
I have already added "Open in Browser" addon but not able to view .shtml files? do we need do some settings in browser after adding "Open in Browser" addons?
"Server-Side Includes" needs the "server" - on your PC to be able to view those pages "off-line".
Are you developing those .shtml files yourself? If so, you need to set up a "server" on that PC to be able to view those files.
No I am not developing .shtml files my self, some of the designers are providing .shtml files to me for developing web based application, I don't have any server on my PC. without installing any server is there any way to view those .shtml files?
Yes, if they send them to you as "Web Page, Complete" or in MHTML format you should be able to view those "pages". Might not help you though if you are going to be modifying or working with the code.
