What is CGI?
"Common Gateway Interface", CGI
for short, is a specification, which allows web users to run programs
from their computer. CGI isn't a programming language in itself;
rather, it is standard that allows programs or scripts written in
other languages (Perl, C++ or even with Microsoft Visual Basic)
to be run over the Internet. CGI programs usually take input passed
to it from a form on a web page, process the information, and then
formats the results as a HTML document. The result is a web page
that is generated dynamically. The common choice for writing and
processing CGI is Perl, or "Practical Extraction and Reporting
Language". Perl was originally developed to handle multiple
text files and format them nicely, but now is used for writing CGI
along with HTML.
