Use AddHandler server-parser .html instead, this will fix everything.

As you were doing it. Or, use a CGI, and point it at a "target" frame :)

PS. the perl script you had there can be done without using perl:
<!--#include "blah" --> instead. Blah can <!--#echo var=LAST_MODIFIED -->.
Much quicker, less resource-hungry.
