CGI can be called on using many different codes via SSI.


or
amongst some of the examples

The thing with SSI though is that it only INCLUDES the file, it doesn't actually do the executing.. what does this mean? Well simply this, your script HAS to be working first before you can include it.. so if its bringing up a blank page then your CGI coding could be bad.

Now there is also the chance of it not being in the right directory pattern (note that it must be from your root directory). However since you said it turns out blank, I ruled this out because when an file cannot be found by the SSI include or exec tag, it usually will give you an error line.

So my advice is to check your CGI if it is functioning first before trying anything else.

Also Note that SSI tags cannot be executed within CGI unless specially coded to manipulate it, but thats way beyond my knowledge there smile
