Hi,
Anybody know how to configure M$ Internet Information Server 5.0 (the
internet pack which comes with windows 2000) to let REBOL act as cgi
handler?
If possible with an example usage.
Very cool would be if somebody could exactly tell me how to implement
the following:
I need to build a database to store information on for examples news
flashes which will be shown on a webpage for a certain amount of days
(so they "expire").
I want to glue this together with php3 and use REBOL for the complete
formhandling (as in input of new messages which will be put in to the
database, if possible with newlines converted to <BR>, and for general
site management).
Server and database have yet to be chosen, but it'll probably boil down
to IIS 5 under win2k with a simple plain Access database. The database
has to be accessable for some people who don't know SQL but do know
Access and the likes.
I'm building this website as an assignment for school and probably take
it even further as to make it the site for a departement of my school.
Prime goals for the site: uptodate news in "flashes" (short messages
about for example sickness of teachers and info about tests),
information on teachers and reglements.
This looks like a great chance for me to finally get to work with REBOL
:-)
(I have to learn a cgi language (don't know PERL and the likes, know a
little shellscripting and certainly don't want to learn ASP!)
