It is much harder than not porting. :) Also, then it is much harder to follow the upstream version... > But on other side you could make it independent files in your website > directory tree, and fetch style elements from midgard by fopen().

You mean that I create two midgard pages, one for the style before the <[content]> tag, and one for after, what pages are only for fopen() them to dump the style before and after the actual (externally generated) page content? Hmm, this sounds really good... Why I didn't think of it before... I am getting old... :-/ I can manage this, as the application is template-based, and I can use PHP in the page header... > > The second problem is bigger: I had the idea to create an active > > page, and use fopen() to execute the needed external pages (I can > > configure the app to create it's URLs appropriate for this, at > > least I hope ;-).

This is also an evident solution. And it is not more insecure than the original application.
