Re: parsing of SSI scripts.

Look into exec() or virtual(). If the script is run over the web, you can just do a fopen("http://www.example.com/script.php"); and read the result. You can do the same for any other script that's run through the web b/c you'll receive it's parsed output, not the source. ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandman" <mr@sandman.net> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 2:58 PM Subject: [PHP] parsing of SSI scripts. > I have a perl script that outputs HTML data.
