Hi All, Just wondering if it were possible to do like the following SSI line: <!--#exec cgi="./cgi-bin/txtcounter.cgi"--> from within php. I know a php alternative should be made, but for the time being and for future's sake.... So far i've tried back ticks, passthru(), exec(), but the problem is that the URI and other variables aren't being passed to the perl script in question. Any idea would be appreciated. Deniz
