I thought SSI's were limitted to special defines in Apache; I didn't
you could create your own.  But What do I know? my Apache experience
is a bit dim yet.  I thought CGI bins had to be invoked directly from
HTML pages or form action post or such.  Of course, PHP simply is
embedded in HTML and the PHP stuff needs to be enabled in httpd.conf
but that's probably beyond the scope of this message:).
