Tomcat & SSI

We use servlets to dynamically generate HTML pages.  Since our pages all
contain the same navigation bar at the top it would be convenient to use SSI
(Server Side Includes) to "include" the navigation bar from a separate file.


Question:  Does Tomcat (4.0) support SSI?  If Tomcat is used with Apache,
will Apache recognize the SSI directives in HTML generated by Tomcat?

Thanks,

Yes, although in 4.0.1 it is not enabled by default.  See the Release
Notes document in the top-level directory for details.
