Using Include Virtual/File

Hello,

I'm developing a site right now and want to have it where various individuals
can update the with simple .txt files. I've tried using the following code
within a table...

<!--#Include File="file.txt" -->

...with "file.txt" containing the plain text information. It shows up fine in
Dreamweaver and when I F12 preview, but when I physically go and double click
on the html file it doesn't show up, nor does it work when I ftp it and try to
access it. Any ideas or solutions here?

First, change it to:
<!--#include file="file.txt" -->

Next, does the server support SSI? If so, are the pages that use the
above directive names with the .shtml file extension, so the server
knows to look inside the file for SSI directives before sending it?
