Yes, there's a way :

/.htaccess
HeaderName HEADER.shtml

/HEADER.shtml
<!--#exec cgi="my_cgi_script.pl|cgi|php"-->
OR
<!--#include virtual="cgi_script"-->

but this last one doesn't work as i want on my website... don't know why.
The first one seems to be like "deprecated" :
""The include virtual element should be used in preference to exec cgi."" in
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_include.html

This described way is particularly useful for perl scripts, but there's
perhaps another (easier) way for php scripts, which are often server-parsed
like ssi, and then the .shtml seems to be useless... i didn't find any good
english word for "redondant" in french ;-)

My problem is that the directory listing is generated between the Header
file and the Readme file (which are yet perl scripts), so i can't modify
this directory listing. I could generate by myself a dir list but... that's
not fun ;)

My problem is that i don't have any access to my host's source code... Do
you find that it's a good "bug" (even if it's not really a bug) to submit to
bugzilla? It should'nt be so complicated to allow modifying it in .htaccess
files for example.

Thank you all for your responses,
Alain
