Another directive of Server Side Includes, is #echo. Commonly used to insert variables such as the time, page last modified, and the document name. The #echo directive has one attribute, var. One nice feature about the var attribute, is that you can incorporate any CGI Environment variable. (HTTP_REFERER etc...)

NOTE: These directives and attributes will only work on SSI enabled pages
