must have a CGI directory on your server ?

Hi,

Some of the hosting companies require that we " :’("
in order to sell exclusive content … so, would anybody tell me what exactly does that mean:

• is it a shopping (zen) cart ;
• is it some kind of php form processing script :
• is it some program available to most hostings … or i have to install that additionally ? :’(

would be very grateful if i got the answer
regards.

You put:

require that we " :'(" in order to sell exclusive content

What do you require? You must have a CGI directory?

A cgi-bin directory is used to run CGI scripts on a server. Files placed inside of that directory will be processed by the server and then the output would be displayed to the user - much like a .php file is parsed by PHP.

The majority of hosts will have support for CGI scripts.
