I don't honestly believe that that would solve a thing.  The problem is 
that the 'getlastmod()' IS being applied to the file doing the including, 
which is what I do NOT want.  I want it to be applied to one of the 
included files.

Thank you! After making "$SCRIPT_FILENAME" "contents.html", this worked 
perfectly! . . .
