    The user gets to the STHML page from a browser redirect I dont think you can execute from an already exected page.
      There is no "executed page" thing happening here. And yes you can.

      Makeshifts last the longest.

        After executing <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-local/browser/index.cgi" -->
        The user arrives at the appropriate page.
        I have added the virtual include on this page <!--#include virtual="events2.txt" --> but the text does not display for me
