up when I view source on the wiki display page in my browser. Even if it did, since the

OK, then do you have a suggestion of how I can do the following in php or
in an extension?
I have a dbman database, it's written in perl and accessible via CGI. I would like
to have each wiki page display the info on the associated record in the database (if it
exists) at the top of the page, above the user generated content.
I wrote a script that combs the xml dump of the wiki and the dbman database and matches up
wiki pages to database records, inserts an SSI link to the database for pages that match
up, and creates wiki pages for database records that don't have them. It's output
is an xml that I was successfully able to import into MW, except that all the SSI got
stripped out. (In fact, all comments got stripped out. I'd like to be able to keep
them to note when the last import is and tell users not to edit the database link)
I was able to add comments manually via the wiki, but as mentioned, they don't show up
when I view source on the final product, only when I edit the page via MW.
I'm new to MW and php, but a fairly competent hacker in general. Any help that at
least points me in the right direction would be much appreciated.
