What's more common: CGI or module installation?

Hi. I want to be able to break out of an .html document and do some PHP stuff. I'd like to write something like: <!-- test.htm --> <HTML> <? echo "Hello, World!"; ?> </HTML> My host server has the CGI version of PHP installed and so they say they can't support what I want to do. I like those guys and I don't want to leave them, especially if their installation is rather typical of most servers. The book "Professional PHP Programming" highlights the pros and cons of each and I can see the logic of their choice. How would you have proceeded in your installation? Is there an alternative way to break out of an .html document?
