Well, that is a way of doing it, allthough i consider it a little "hackish".

Usually, you just name your file index.shtml (or even index.ssi) instead
of.html to distinguish server-side-includes by file-extension.

This will work fine if you have a line like this in your httpd.conf:

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks Includes
AllowOverride None
</Directory>

The important part above is "includes" which enables server-side includes.

Now you need to map the includes to a file extension:

AddType text/html .shtml .ssi
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml .ssi

And maybe also take into account having an index-shtml also as default file
(which comes up when you only specify a path to a folder in an url):

DirectoryIndex index.htm index.html index.ssi index.shtml index.asis

I guess this all is even easier through the ServerAdmin GUI (which i don't
use) by just turning on "includes" for your host.
