Severity: minor

Description Jose Vano 2006-05-31 07:46:22 UTC 
In http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/en/mod/mod_include.html (apache 2.0 SSI
documentation) you can read:

"The value [of an attribute value] will often be enclosed in double quotes, but
single quotes (') and backticks (`) are also possible."

Tomcat SSI support is suposed to implement the same SSI directives as Apache.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to enclose attribute values in single quotes.

Thank you very much for reading this bug report.
