Thanks a lot $Bill. I will try all of your suggestions. So, there is no way to write the script, execute it as a SSI inside the cell of the table:
---SNIP---
  <tr>
    <th width="60" scope="row">1</th>
    <td width="180" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div align="right">
        <p>
    
                          </p>
    </div></td>
  </tr>
---SNIP---
and have the content of the cell re-written with a new value of the
variable, right?


Sure - that would work (take the space out to be safe (after the .cgi" ).
Is there just the one include ?  If there are many, it may be easier to
return the whole table.

Well, it works but not the way I want it. It prints and displays all ~5000 values in this cell and I need the value to be overwritten with a new one (something what I get using \r insted of \n in STDOUT). There is just the one include per cell, the table has 8 rows so far so there are 8 includes.

In regards to Joe's #exec response:  #exec cgi= is pretty much deprecated
by #include virtual= .

Don't laugh too hard if this question is stupid. I'm quite new to the CGI
programming and I thought that there is a way to send a new value to the
cell avoiding sending the cell with a new value.


I'm probably missing why you would need to do it though.  Why not just
hardcode it ?  Is the value changing somehow ?

I'm writing this script for my friend who wants the data to be displayed in cells dynamically. It will be GD::Graph involved but I'm not there yet. For now I'm getting that data from a text file but in the future it will be data received through the modem. Many thanks.

Greg.
