Correct. CGI is done completely differently on the Mac. I don't know
of any examples out there, but if you've got a HyperCard example it'll
work with MetaCard.

It's not clear what you're trying to do here. What kind of system is
your ISP running? Note that ISPs running Macs are very rare, though
if you're running an "intranet" or have a Mac on an ISPs LAN (i.e.,
co-location services), you can probably do it. In any case, there's
quite a journey between having your stack running on a local system
and having it run on a globally-accessible HTTP server, and it sounds
like a little research would be the place to start for you and the
place to start that is the mail archives for this list (look for the
pointer to Nelson Zink's description of the process):
