Server-side includes FTW! When a buddy and I started making "web stuff" back in the mid-90s the idea of DRY also just made sense to us.
My dialup ISP back then didn't disable using .htaccess files in the web space they provided to end users. That meant I could turn on server-side includes! Later I figured out how to enable CGI. (I even went so far as to code rudimentary webshells in Perl just so I could explore the webserver box...)
