Hi everyone,

I have a client who wants to insert some mysql info into his customers html pages that are on another server. Can CGI do this?

Thanks

Yes,

using either a server side include (SSI) or as a script whose source is dynamically generated.

Can you tell me the ssi command? I see that file and virtual are for documents that reside on the same server.

I would like to include output from a cgi file that resides on another server.

Thanks
