I'm really allergic to most kinds of write-XML-and-generate-HTML confusions, including mod_include ;the reason being that when I modify a page, I want to be able to "test" it without having to fire up a local web server or some other extra process. At least mod_include keeps the source in HTML, and if capacty ever becomes an issue, it's pretty much trivial to generate static pages from mod-included ones. CMS rules but only for much more complex sites, and of course that burns capacity even faster... -- Brane
