[REBOL] free web hosting with rebol Re:(3)
Hi Martin, don't forget about the extra load scripts will put on your server. You could spend alot of time creating a great script and end up having to pay extra for system resources.

A Rebol script can be used to fetch data from a textfile and put the data into a HTML template, thus creating an unique web page? In this way one may render lots of documents of the same kind, but with unique data, such as a list of products where each product is linked to a script-generated information page? Yes. Have a look at my HTML script on http://www.rebol.org for an example. Plus various other similar systems from Carl and others. > 2. A Rebol script can be used in the way above, but on the server side, reading data from a text file for input to the HTML template. In this way, Rebol may serve the same function as Visual Basic or Javascript within an Active Server Page? Yes, by using the Apache REBOL module or as a CGI process. Or, lacking those, using prebuilt pages output from a rebol script. > 3. Which one of the two above methods is preferred -- rendering unique web pages with a script or having the script read data "on the fly" thus providing dynamic web pages? If your information is static, static HTML pages would be quicker. If your information is changing with each click, then the Apache module would be quickest, followed by the REBOL in CGI mode. > I would be really glad to get some ideas on this, and maybe even some code that I can play around with to learn from. Thanks! http://www.rebol.org and the examples on http://www.rebol.com I hope that helps! Andrew Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://members.xoom.com/AndrewMartin/ -><-

Hi, Yes, you need to upload a version of REBOL executable for BSDI (not Windows rebol.exe) and set its permissions. It is possible with free.prohosting.com, but I don't know of any other free hosting service that allows you to run CGI programs. Since you are the third person to ask on this ML in a week, I give up and post my incomplete guide written in terrible English at: http://hammer.prohosting.com/~rebol/rebol-cgi-prohosting.html Write me if you succeed in running REBOL on Prohosting following this guide. -- Michal Kracik [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hello kracik, > > Sunday, April 09, 2000, 3:15:01 AM, you wrote: > > kmdc> you can use free.prohosting.com, but you have to upload REBOL yourself. > > kmdc> You can run my example REBOL script at > kmdc> http://hammer.prohosting.com/~rebol/cgi-bin/cgitest.cgi > > I didn't understand well,can I upload REBOL by myself??? > I thought that it has to have some permits to run on that server... > This means that probably it'll work with other providers too? > (If it works you made my day :-)) > > How shall I do it?

Well, if you have a shell accout, then you are more or less the master of whatever the disk space the sys admin gives you. > How shall I do it? Just upload the rebol.exe ? Find out which operating system your ISP uses and upload the right rebol distro to your account, then install rebol, and enjoy.
