paths (the location of applications), there extensions and more...
1.
PHP
If
you want to make a page become a php compatible page, then change
the extension from ".html" or ".htm" to ".php"
Insert insert your php code into the source of the page. (also called
the encoding of a page). You can upload your php page to your ftp
directory like any other file. If you do not know how to ftp (Click
Here).
It is not necessary to specify a path in your php code to make your
file work.
Note: If you need more information regarding
php code writing, then visit the following page (http://ww.php.net).
2.
PERL
Perl
is similar as PHP, although there are some differences in writing
the code of a perl page. A perl page has the following extension
(index.pl).
With perl it is best to specify the path to the perl directory on
the server. For Cybhosting customers this would be (/usr/bin/perl
--).
Note for more information regarding PERL,
please visit (http://www.perl.com)
3.
CGI (also CGI-BIN)
CGI
is the directory where you can upload your script pages. (.pl, .php,
etc...)
Some hosting companies have created a special directory called a
CGI-BIN.
With Cybhosting.com you do not need to worry that you upload your
pages in the CGI-BIN directory, infact we have made it very simple.
The ftp directory where you upload your normal pages has an incorporated
CGI-BIN. This means that you can upload your normal and scripts
pages together in the same location (or directory).
Note: If you would like more information regarding
CGI, please do not hesitate to write to info@cybhosting.com.
We will be more then happy to help you.
4.
ASP
ASP
stands for Active Server Pages. A file extension would look like
this (index.asp).
It's function is similar to PHP and PERL.
Asp is easy to use and to write.
