replaces the current last modified header value if it is later.

You can use the cgi directive to specify the URL of a virtual path to a CGI program.

Example 1:

<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/program/path_info?query_string" -->

Example 2:

<!--#exec cgi="&path;&cgiprog;&pathinfo;&querystring;" --> This example shows the use of variables.

You can use the flastmod directive to display the last time and date the document changed. The config timefmt directive defines the formatting of this variable. The file and virtual tags can be used with this directive, and the meaning is the same as it is for the include directive.

Directive Formats:

<!--#flastmod file="/path/file" -->

<!--#flastmod virtual="/path/file" -->

Example:

<!--#flastmod file="FOO" extra text --> Result: 12May96 <!— This is extra text –>

Use the fsize directive to display the size of the specified file. The formatting of this variable is defined using the config sizefmt directive. You can use the file and virtual tags with this directive, and the meaning is the same as it is for the include directive.

Examples:

<!--#fsize file="/path/file" --> <!==#fsize virtual="/path/file" -->

Result: 1K

Use the global directive to define global variables that are echoed by this file, or any included files.

Example:

<!--#global var=VariableName value="Some Value" -->

If you want to refer to a parent document across the virtualboundary, you need to set a global variable DOCUMENT_URI. You must also refer to the global variable in the child document. The following is an example of the HTML coding you need to insert in the parent document:

Example:

<!--#global var="PARENT_URI" value=&DOCUMENT_URI; -->
