Hello

I'm using SSI and want to call a cgi-script, I'm doing this by using the following code


<!--#include virtual="../cgi-bin/first.cgi" -->
<!--#include virtual="../cgi-bin/first.pl" -->

I've also tried using

 #exec

but that doesn't work.

I can inlude html files and all other SSI-code works, exept including cgi-script. My cgi-scripts work when I call them directly.

Does anyone have an idea to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Iben,

Are you getting errors?
is anything at all happening?

Did you try calling the script using the root path? You may need to edit the path below if the path to your cgi-bin isn't in your root directory.

I found out that it is not possible to call CGI scripts using SSI on the server I use!

Thanks anyway
