The "s" in front of "html" signals to the server that the page needs to be processed by being sent to your computer. Often used with SSI (see below) to make pages "on the fly."
Server Side Includes (SSI) allow a web page to ‘include' content from another source before sending the page to the browser to be displayed. SSI pages are identified by the file extension .shtml. SSI are useful to display content from one source on multiple pages within your website. This means that you only need to update one file in your website instead of multiple files if you wish to make a change. The most common use for SSI pages is for including content that will be the same on every page of your site such as page headers or navigation bars.
Scripted HyperText Markup Language. This is a modified version of HTML which includes special commands for performing certain tasks. MHC's Document Interface uses this. See also: HTML

Web pages that contain SSIs often end with an shtml extension, though this is not a requirement. The filename extension enables the Web server to differentiate those pages that need to be processed before they are sent to the browser.
SHTML is an acronym for server-parsed HTML. SHTML is a valid extension for a web document - you can utilize SHTML if it is active on your server and your documents have the .shtml extension. Server parsed HTML is often used for file includes. SHTML is parsed on the server before being sent to the user making the page request.
Server-Parsed HTML. File extension used to identity HTML pages.
Normal HTML that includes "server-side" instructions
(Server-parsed HTML) A file extension used to identify HTML pages that contain server-side includes. Server-parsed means that the server scans the page for commands that require additional insertion before the page is sent to the user.
