5928.0. "VMS-HTTPserver: CGI and CDE" by ZUR01::JAUNIN (www2000: click and dispair) Fri Feb 14 1997 10:35

Cross posted in DECWINDOWS:

I got a good question from customer. They are evaluating a project for an
INTRAnet at a site based on an VMS HTTP Server under Motif 1.2-4 CDE. He will 
use Netscape for VMS, but I think the main question is not the Browser...

Since the Situation (and question) might be complex. I tried to track it down 
to some simple questions:

  - What could be used to create cgi-bin scripts (on VMS!)? PERL,...?

        example: create cgi-bin scrips for database-queries, forms,... 

  - Any chances to control CDE applications directly? 

        example: to offer an online help document (HTML) with pointers to 
                 application-examples starting up.
  
Customer has a lot of experiences in programming and all the Internet-stuff. But
he has too less informations what is possible under VMS...

We don't need a solution, just some hints, tips or contacts to other groups
(people) doing consulting in that area. 

thanks
andre
