[MTOS-dev] PHP SSI on Dynamic still broken in Beta5?

[Brad Choate]

The problem here is that you're using MT tags inside PHP code. You  
should know that for dynamic publishing, MT tags are converted into  
PHP blocks, so the code below winds up changing to this:

<?php .... $entryID = '<?php ....

Also, a SSI module is not going to be aware of the current entry in  
context. I recommend leaving this module as a plain MT module. If you  
do, you can do this:

<?php
$entryID = $this->tag('EntryID');
.....

The "$this" variable is a reference to the Smarty class being used to  
render the template.
