Hi Ed,

It "can" be done, but you should have a server admin do it, as it is tricky and beyond my skills.

The real answer is probably no. It has to do with how the server processes SSI and scripts, particularly the order. It has to process the SSI BEFORE the script so in can "include" the script. If you put an SSI tag in a script, the server will already have looked for SSI tags before running the script.

Again, there is a work-around, but it will need to be done at the server admin level and I don't know what it is...
