CGI - Common Gateway Interface
WebConnect provides access to the Common Gateway Interface for production and utilisation of both provided and custom server scripts. Examples of provided CGI scripts include:
- Form-To-Mail
- Counters
Clients can however implement their own CGI scripts built in a variety of languages. Available languages on ECN servers include:
- C/C++
- PERL
- Unix Shell
Accessing your CGI-Bin Area
Each WebConnect site includes a /cgi-bin1/ directory within their private directory structure. This directory can contain CGI programs and scripts - written in any of the above languages. When executing a script be sure to reference the location as:
- http://Your-Site-Name/cgi-bin1/Your-Script-Name
ECN reserves the use of the standard /cgi-bin/ location for the use of system based scripts such as Form To Mail and counters.
For further information or assistance with CGI-BIN scripting contact ECN WebConnect support.
