are you sure about this? I thought that perl, python etc use cgi whereas

Then?

I dunno. Perhaps there is some terminology confusion.

I am sure perl CGI uses the same concept that I mentioned above and it
uses mod_perl.

I dunno about mod_python and php.

I dunno about php. But in python and perl there are two ways of doing a website:

1. Use standard python and perl with the CGI module - put your scripts in cgi-bin and apache invokes the python/perl interpreter to run the scripts - slow.

2. Use mod_perl/mod_python which is embedded in apache as a module. Put your scripts anywhere and apache runs them as a part of apache - fast. No CGI here.
