I believe we told him that 1.5 years ago. If your are using SSI to
combine whole html documents then your are doing it wrong. Either make
your SSI include documents contain *only* the parts of the page that you
need to include OR do not use SSI. It's the wrong tool and you should
use some other server side script to open such documents and parse to
extract *only* the bits your need to assemble a valid html document.

If your page is patchwork Frankenstein with extra bits and invalid
markup then you are relying a browser's ability to "guess" what it is
supposed to be algorithms to some how display the page. Not a good plan.
