I'd be very leary of sending cgi commands that are directly executing
commands on your server.

I have a fairly extensive Rev multimedia application (an encyclopedia

it so it runs on the web. I'm not sure how much of the currently
functionality I can actually replicate via a browser, but I'm ready to
see how far I can go with this.
I'm starting out knowing I need to use cgi functionality as the
gateway, and I've recently had some experience setting up a Rev-based
cgi server. But all of that was based on using text files, not Rev
stacks.
If I understand the possibilities correctly, I should be able to
accept input from the user's browser which can be translated via cgi
so that it effectively sends commands to my existing Rev stacks,
almost as if the user was working right off the CD. I understand the
output will have to formatted to html... no problem on that end.
It's not clear to me if it makes sense to use LibCGI in this process
and/or RevHTTP. And, to the extent I should use either or both of
these, I'm not clear on the simplest way to integrate them.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks.
