mod_layout
mod_layout is an Apache module that provides both a Footer and Header directive to automagically include output from other URIs at the beginning and ending of a Web page. It can be used to wrap documents for a standard look and feel for a site (or to insert banners on any given document in a site). Currently known to support mod_perl, PHP and Apache JServ. Should support just about any type of handler.

I thought this may be helpful. For use on RHEL ES 3 do the following:
-make sure you have httpd-devel (gives you apxs, apr-config, etc...)
-download source tarball (I used 4.02a) and extract it, then cd into the new directory.
-change the following in the Makefile:
top_srcdir=/usr/lib/httpd
top_builddir=/usr/lib/httpd
include /usr/lib/httpd/build/special.mk
-Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.
