| CGI stands for Common Gateway Interface and it dictates how information is shared between a Web server and a CGI program. A CGI program is a simple program that is used to collect data from users and return data from a Web server. One of the most common uses of CGI is in processing Website forms. Users enter data such as their name and e-mail address. Once they submit the form, the data is processed and the user receives some sort of data in return. CGI can be especially helpful if you want to create a newsletter or e-zine subscription form for your Website. CGI can process the subscription data and thank users for subscribing automatically so that you don’t have to manually respond to every user. |
