    Is SSI possible on CGI files? My host was telling me that it is not. Is there a line i can add to my htaccess to make it possible? Thanks.

    Is there an equivalent? My coop check over the weekend failed because my cgi files were not running the include which i had assumed they were - and google fails to read my robots.txt which is excluding my cgi-bin directory.

    Hmmm... what's the site? I've never heard of Google not following a robots.txt directive.

    I had a weight of 65,000 so its kind of sucks that this happened :)

    http://www.4intrepid.com is the site

    I've read on SEO chat (or maybe here) that if your files have ?'s in them, it causes problems with robots. Which is why froogle has explicitly marked ?s in its excluded files.
    I figure there has to be a way to include results from another file on a cgi page somehow.

    You *should* be able to include a file with a CGI, it really just depends on the CGI and what language it was written in. I see your CGIs include your template on the output, so I don't see why it wouldn't be possible. But it wouldn't be able to happen with SSI (I wouldn't think), but some other method should be possible.
