Stepping Up to CGI
HOW DO I USE IT?
1) Find already available CGI scripts
Find scripts already running on your server (i.e. FrontPage, WCB)
Ask Webmaster to install scripts you want to use
Go to
Web links
to find collections of CGI scripts
2) Process for getting new CGI scripts running
Copy/modify HTML-based Web form, upload form to server
Use generic CGI scripts - no changes necessary (values in HTML)
Use modifiable/commented CGI scripts - customize & save
Requires CGI-level access or approval of Webmaster
