I have found that instead of using the following:

<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/count.cgi?testcount"-->

I can use:

<img src="/cgi-bin/count.cgi?testcount">

This runs the script.

Unfortunately, my script doesn't produce an image, so I get a rectange on the
screen where the image would go.

Can I use instead something like one of the following:

<text src="/cgi-bin/count.cgi?testcount">

or even better

<void src="/cgi-bin/count.cgi?testcount">

or

<null src="/cgi-bin/count.cgi?testcount">

?

Please advise.

Mark.
