# Inserting external HTML/CGI in WordPress Page

 * I’ve been searching for this all night, maybe I’m not finding a solution because
   I don’t know exactly what I am looking for.
 * I am trying have a WordPress page that includes the body of an external html 
   that is generated by a CGI program (SFESurvey [http://www.tesol.net/scripts/SFESurvey/](http://www.tesol.net/scripts/SFESurvey/)).
   I know how to do this with Server Side Includes, and can call it with PHP on 
   a non-wp webpage. I also could do it with an iFrame (at least with a traditional
   HTML page) but that isn’t very pleasant. Can anyone point me to a plugin or a
   solution of some kind to allow me to do this. WP keeps stripping my code fragments,
   so I assume I need a plugin… but what?
 * Forgive me if this is a completely ignorant question. I’m new to wp, and this
   one part is really kicking my butt.
 * Thanks for your time.

 * When you you want to make a WP page – you mean a Page, like described here:
    
   [http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages) ? If yes,
   think it this way: maybe it is better to create a Page template with all the 
   code you want in it and then create a new Page using that template. see also:

 * On wordpress 1.5, I had linked to my flickr photo feed, and now after upgrading
   to 2.0, I’m finding that the feed no longer works. I had originally inserted 
   the html code supplied by flickr and it worked fine until the upgrade. It seems
   that in 2.0, a major change has been made in how images are linked as the <img
   src> method I had always used doesnt work any more and I had to use the ‘blog
   this’ feature on flickr. Is it possible for me to re-enable this photo feed?
 * this is all that appears on the page now:

 * Thank you Moshu. I will try that and see if it works. Yes, I am referring to 
   a “Page” created in the WordPress program.
