  ok another question,
  
  i have foo.shtml file that has:

  Code

  <!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/widget/bar.cgi" -->

  in it.
  
  when i open the file: somewhere.com/foo.shtml it works
  
  but if i have foo.shtml as a block it just makes it a comment and apache doesn't actually run the file.
  
  ps. in the code drop down box it would be nice to have the options in alpha order!

  by the way:
  1. i cannot do a simple PHP include because its a binary program, so it just show all the binary code crap in the browser.
  2. cannot do a PHP virtual because my host has that turned off.

  Anyone? There has to be a way to have a .shtml file that is included in a block actually get executed by the server!
  Would i need to do some .htaccess? Or maybe a better solution would be have index.shtml be my start page that has my include code then have that include postnuke's index.php file. That may work, i will have to try that.

  Hmmm. Execute your shtml to a page then include the page... Do not include the shtml... but only the output. (Maybe).

  well the problem is that the include needs to set a cookie, so it has to be real time.
  So far right now i have it so that when going to the domain you hit a shtml page first that runs the trade script.
  Then redirects to the main page.

  Maybe, using a PHP block...
  

  Code

  virtual ("/cgi-bin/widget/bar.cgi");

  
  
  Make sure the path is correct from the block...
  
  Or do it as I said before, using a cron (depending on how real of time you need).
  
  I don't really know...
