Hi, Using SSI and CGI together in Tomcat is something I haven't actually tried. But I would nonetheless recommend trying a later Tomcat version: 5.5.4 or 5.0.28 at least. The reason for this recommendation is that should you fine a bug in these versions, it's likely to get fixed, whereas if you find a bug in Tomcat 4.x it's not as likely (and if a fix is applied, it certainly won't be as timely as for 5.x).
