Yes. CGI (Common Gateway Interface) is a specification for transferring information between a Web server and a CGI program.
CGI programs are one of the most common way for Web servers to interact dynamically with users. For instance, a Web page that
has a form on it can use a CGI program to process the form's data once it's submitted.
Our Small and Virtual Business Web customers may request a CGI directory for testing of scripts. To request this, send
e-mail to webscripts@seanet.com. You will receive the Web address and directory
to use for testing. Once the testing process is complete and the script performs as you wish it to perform, submit it to
webscripts@seanet.com for final installation. After the script is installed, the
Web address will be <http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/scriptname>. In order for us to keep track of
which scripts belong to whom, we ask that you start each script's name with your webmaster login.
All of our customers have access to generic scripts which handle the most common CGI tasks. Those customers who have a
site hosted on our FrontPage server should use FrontPage extensions rather than CGI, since these are only on our Unix servers.
