Introduction to CGIIntroduction to CGI When a server has
client's request to compute a CGIprogram, usually written in
C-like or Perl languages,is executed. A CGI receives parameters,
executes oneor more computations, gets a result; send it back
tothe client and exits. This means that at each client'srequest
the same CGI program has to be loaded,executed and terminated.
This procedure is actuallythe most popular in the client-server
environment,but it often overloads servers.
