Maybe I didn't explain my view related CGI very clear. What I try to say is as
following:
Maybe, we can view CGI as a SPECIFICATION NOT A IMPLEMENTATION. Since as I
understand, or what I know when the people are talking about CGI, they realy
mean some specific implementation of CGI such as Perl CGI or C CGI or C++ CGI.
And all those are just specific implementation of CGI. In the OLD TIME. those
CGI implementation will create a seperate process from web server. Because I
have done the CGI programming in the past. This is what I understand. And today
the vendor like Microsoft, SUN and ColdFusion etc. they use ASP, JSP, Java
servlet to implementing same functionality. Yes, there are some additional
functions in the new technology. However, from CGI point of view, those
technologies are IMPLEMENTING CGI.
I don't know whether I state clearly or not. If so I really like to know
what other people think about. Since now there are lot of confusing related CGI,
ASP, JSP,..
thanks
you sheng
