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.
