Re: [cobalt-users] SSI in CGI Scripts



There's an Apache module to let you use SSI in the output from CGI.
http://wss.hypermart.net/source/apache/

HOWEVER, it is *not* recommended that you do this.  It's a security hazard,
as any CGI script that allows user input
would then allow any user to abitrarily use SSI functions, such as include
and exec.
