I used SSI for years to add the same header and footer files to my 200+ file site. Changing one file automatically applies the change to all.

I use Tomcat running on Linux and Windows, so the process may be somewhat different. If I recall correctly, there were four steps:
1.. In web.xml, I had to uncomment the code to select an SSI filter or servlet.
2.. While Tomcat provided the filter code, the file containing the code has to be renamed. The Tomcat web.xml file has instructions for this step buried in the comments.
3.. In web.xml, I had to uncomment lines to associate .shtml files with the selected filter or servlet.
4.. The nasty bit was that all of this is ignored by Tomcat unless the application that processes the shtml file is defined as priviledged. This required a change to the server.xml file for the application.
I also wrote a course on setting up the integrated HTTP server (www.http://mantatech.com/manta/CWEB01.htm). It includes a session on SSI directives. Tim Rowe and his staff did a great job in removing all of the complications. Using the web-based interface, all I had to do was check a box to activate SSI for a given app.
