The simple answer is wait for Apache 2.x, but since that's just barely
alpha now, that's a looong [sic] while away.
The issue in Apache 1.x is that you can use only one handler in any
particular phase to process you're request. Thus, php or mod_perl (or cgi,
depending on how you meant to invoke perl).
But the real question is why? I have never done a navbar on a page (most
of my web work is server app development, not pages), si I may be making
some wrong assumptions here. If you are creating the page with a cgi or a
mod-perl app, I would think you would be able to do the whole thing without
ever using PHP.
But, if what you are really doing is displaying a page with server-side
components, PHP is a much better chice by far than cgi or mod-perl. What
are you trying to do that php won't do for you?
