in reply to SSI within a Perl CGI script

A Server Side Include is just a line of HTML. So if the Perl CGI script is outputting the contents of a web page, adding an SSI directive has no special meaning to Perl.

Just output the SSI like any other piece of a web page.

Update:Sinister is right, an SSI is not just a line of HTML -- it is further processed by the web server. But it still does not have any special meaning to a Perl script.

    Not quitte true! A server-side include is parsed by the webserver. What perl returns is no further parsed by your $WEBSERVER.

      Only if your webserver supports it. If you are using apache (as most people do), you will need to use 2.0 (still in beta) if you want your cgi output to be server-parsed.
