Thank you. That's what I've been doing, but so far it's not working.  
The proxy works, and SSI works in local files, but together they don't  
work. The SSI directives pass through untouched, so it looks like the  
upstream pages are not parsed but travel straight through, but the  
debug log does include a few lines like this:

2008/08/22 16:14:26 [debug] 436#0: *34 finalize http upstream request: 0
2008/08/22 16:14:26 [debug] 436#0: *34 finalize http proxy request

0000000000000000

The page is gzipped upstream. Would that stop the proxy parsing the  
pages?

thanks,
