You can put most Apache directives into a .htaccess file, so take advantage
of that feature. Make a special prepend file that first includes the
current prepend.php3 file, then does a page open. Also create an append
file that does a page_close. Then, in .htaccess, set those as the
auto_prepend_file and auto_append_file. For PHP3:

php3_auto_prepend_file your_file_name.php3
php3_auto_append_file your_file_name.php3

PHP4:
php_admin_value auto_prepend_file your_file_name.php
php_admin_value auto_append_file your_file_name.php
