[Xitami] SSI

[xitami@lists.xitami.org]

Thanks Ewen
    Tried that, it still fails.  There are no entries in the cgierr.log file
so I'm still in the dark.  Can you confirm two things for me?

(1) With all things in order, "should" this work? (i.e. I should be able to
construct a Win32 executable to include html form controls into an existing
web page?)

(2) Your comment to "hope for the best" means that this is not a stable
and/or supported feature of xitami, but only something that could work if
everything is perfect and the planets are aligned just right <g>?

This may be a feature I have to have, so I want to exhaust all possible
methods with xitami before starting the undesirable task of looking for a
new web server.

Thanks!
