two headers while using SSI

sulfericacid has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

It came to my attention yesterday that I have TWO <title> tags in my website. After a little searching I found out what the problem was but now I can't seem to fix it. I have a <title> on my html and since I am using SSI on my chat script, I get the headers from there too. The first thing I tried was to remove the print header, start_html(); from my script thinking that I won't need it if it's being used as SSI after the headers are on the page. Doing this creates errors preventing the script from loading.

Any ideas on how to remove the headers so I don't get a second <title>my page title here</title> half way down my page? (the headers are printed shortly after the config section.
