f1r3fl3x Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hi all, the topic title says it all. I have some really stupid questions and i'd like to ask them here The first is, are .cgi files (in the folder /cgi-bin/) written in C? And can they be run on a Linux platform ? I'm asking these questions, becouse i need to make a web thumb service on my website and i saw http://iecapt.sourceforge.net/. It has an open source, but it uses IE to capture screens. Do you know any other way to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 cgi is simply an interface available through web servers to execute a variety of different scripting languages (php included). Probably the most common language used to write these scripts in is Perl, though pretty much all the big names have cgi interfaces available.
