Unfortunately, I don't have access to the logs.  As I mentioned in the
original email, it's a cheapo webhosting account without any shell
access.  I can transfer files to and from what amounts to a home
directory for the account, which has a public_ftp directory and a
public_html directory and no logs (which I tend to guess would be in
/var anyway).

Thanks for the URL.  I'll be going through that page with a fine-toothed
comb, now that I'm using (fighting with) SSI.

How do I go about passing variables to the script via include virtual
without using cookies, then?  My understanding is that include virtual
won't allow passing variables via the URL (for example).

I'll give cmd a whirl, though cgi seems to work great if all my page
content is coming from the CGI script.  Is there some specific
difference in behavior between cmd and cgi in this of which I'm not
aware?
