Setting CGI's for outputting SSI to be executed 1

[detc]

I've searched for an answer to this but it appears I'm the only one silly enough to want to do it.

I am generating a page from a cgi that includes an 'include virtual'.
The page is generated OK but the include is not executed.
As I don't know a way to force the output to shtml I'm pretty stuck.
I have tried 'XBitHack on' in .htaccess, but no joy.

Your help whould be much appreciated

I only have a basic knowledge but am happy to try anything.

If you are familiar with perl. Your best solution would be to use the CGI::SSI module.

Thanks a bundle M - will test this when I get back. Whatever the resilt:- the link has given me the the right guidance, even if it means that I have to parse the code into PHP in the end. But at the moment it looks very hopeful and the info also includes Apache stuff I needed to know. Thanks also to James Tolley (in case he reads this forum) who took the time to put this very useful info in public view. Whatever the result it will improve my understanding, and that is worth more than just one program fix.
