What "CGI"? Perl, C, et cetera...?
CGI (common gateway interface) means the server runs a program to generate a web page. Instead of printing out the file at the given URL, it tries to run it as a program (shell script, C executable, whatever), and whatever it prints out when you run it is the resulting page.
Yeeees...I know. I was asking CGI told me nothing, I was wanting to know what language, Rob. -.-
And where do I need to look.
This is probably all documented somewhere, but the above should get you started.
I was asking the location of whatever mailing archive thing he had. -.-
Now if you're dealing with an existing CGI program, it could be a nasty mess written in cobol for all I know. CGI just says what the inputs and outputs are, it doesn't say what language the program is written in...
Heh.
