What I seem to face is this:
SSI calls text file
shmtl in main folder calls image in text file from sub-folder
shtml in sub folder calls image from sister folder.

Using EasyPHP and testing in html-kit I could not find a common format.

main folder text has SRC="images/pound_page_head3.gif" called by <!--#include virtual="sitepagehead.txt"-->

subfolder text has src="../images/pound_page_head3.gif" called by <!--#include virtual="../sitepageheadotherfolders.txt"--> [text file is in main folder]

Nothing else worked. [I had previously left images and other things in main folder and repeated ghem where needed, but this will be a large site eventually, and I am partly working to prepare for PHP. Templates had been folder-sensitive - the design is cannibalised from an earlier domain.]
