Thanks for your response.

It is only a few include files that I want to turn static each time
their content changes, perhaps a couple of times a week, but each of
these pages makes database calls, so if I leave them dynamic the
system will be repeatedly making demands on the database for every
page on my site as some of these includes are in the header.

I need to be able to do this from within a php page rather than from
the command line, so Pedro's solution seems to fit.
