I am sorry, I don't think I explained it correctly. The navbar example using mod_perl is such that you create a handler of some sort, in my case it handles all *.html files. The handler looks for the <!--NAVBAR-->. Once the handler finds that comment, it replaces the comment with the navbar. I have PHP compiled as a loadable module thus it is my understanding that handlers cannot process the php file before or after the php handler. Because of this I am assuming that I am going to want to use a php include to include php code that dynamically creates the navbar. All this I already knew... I am wondering if there are any examples of this type of thing or if there is a better way of implementing a navbar in php. Sam
