NAME

       CGI::SSI_Parser - Implement SSI for Perl CGI

SYNOPSIS

         use CGI::SSI_Parser;

         $CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;

         fssi($filename);
         sssi($string);

DESCRIPTION

       CGI::SSI_Parser is used in CGI scripts for parsing SSI directives in files or string variables, and fully
       implements the functionality of apache's mod_include module.

       It is an alternative to famous Apache::SSI modules, but it doesn't require mod_perl. This is an advantage
       to those who are using public hosting services.  There is a disadvantage, however - the module consumes
       much memory, and I don't recommend using it on heavy-loaded sites (currently it's being used on a site
       with 10000 hits, and I consider this as a limit). I hope to get rid of this disadvantage by the time the
       release comes out (currently it's beta).

   SSI Directives
       This module supports the same directives as mod_include. For methods listed below but not documented,
       please see mod_include's online documentation at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_include.html .

       •   config

       •   echo

           This directive is not fully supported in current version.

       •   exec

       •   fsize

       •   flastmod

       •   include

       •   printenv

       •   set

           This directive is not supported in current version.

       •   perl

           This directive is not supported in current version.

       •   if

       •   elif

       •   else

       •   endif

           These four directives are not supported in current version.

   Outline Usage
       First you need to load the CGI::SSI_Parser module:

         use CGI::SSI_Parser;

       You need to specify the following when processing of all nested directives is needed (default value - 0):

        $CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;

       To parse file or string you need to use:

         fssi($filename);
         sssi($string);

       The result is printed to STDOUT.

TO DO

       Full implementation of all SSI directives.

       Optimize memory consumption.
