CGI Scripting

We create solutions that add interactivity to your site or increase the amount of data / value you get out of your own site. One way to do that is by using CGI technology.

CGI - (the Common Gateway Interface) is a standard way for a Web server to pass a Web user's request to an application program and to receive data back to forward to the user. The common gateway interface provides a consistent way for data to be passed from the user's request to the application program and back to the user. This means that the person who writes the application program can makes sure it gets used no matter which operating system the server uses (PC, Macintosh, UNIX, OS/390, or others). It's simply a basic way for information to be passed from the Web server about your request to the application program and back again.

The most commonly used CGI scripts are:

- for handling information passed from web page Form to Email recipient;

- manipulating Database;

- building Guestbooks;

- Chat Rooms;

- Password Protection;

- Hit Counters.
