Without using SSI there are two ways to do this.
- Have the script output an image
Problems:
- Requires the user to have a browser supporting images (and for them to be enabled).
- Cannot capture the referrer (unless you throw JavaScript into the mix and dynamically generate the URI to the CGI script to include the referer as part of the query string.
Disallow access to the real files and force users to access only the script. Use the query string to decide which file to load.
Problems:
- Really, really ugly URIs
- You have to change all your links
- Search engines tend to dislike sites consisting of one with with different query strings.
Really, the best solution is probably going to be finding a better service provider.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
