There is no "executed page" thing happening here. And yes you can.

    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

      Are the two lines in different files? (That's what I assume by your description.) In that case it absolutely doesn't matter how the visitor arrived at the second page with the <!--#include virtual="events2.txt" -->

      You may be having an issue with pathnames and/or permissions. Can you bring up events2.txt in your browser? That's necessary before an SSI include will work.
