    If I just put it anywhere, it includes it as text, displayed on the page. But instead of displaying it, I want to use the result of intercept.cgi as HTML code. I have tried putting: 
    
<input type="hidden" name="transactioncode" value="<!--#include virtua
+l="/cgi-bin/intercept.cgi">">

    [download]
    Which I would like to write into the HTML as: 
    <input type="hidden" name="transactioncode" value="5655645">

    [download]
    But instead it writes as far as 
    Various HTML here
<input type="hidden" name="transactioncode" value="5655645

    [download]
    And then it crashes out. (If this makes sense). Thanks in advance.

      Please try with:

      <input type="hidden" name="transactioncode" value='<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/intercept.cgi" -->'>

      Note the use of quote characters and the -- at the end of the SSI directive.
