1. CGI scripting with Euphoria, Apache and RedHat
Hiya all,
I just wanted to report that over the last few days I've been working on a
CGI script to provide an internal phone book/lookup page on my company's
intranet and I used Euphoria on a Linux RedHat system running Apache to do
so. I'm still tweaking the code but if anyone is interested (email me)
then I can put together a ZIP file for submission to the RDS contributions.
Infact this would be a good thing as it will force me to write some
documentation 
I've done some CGI scripting before using UNIX shell (sh) and even C
programs (most _sensible_ people would use Perl but I have a mental block
with Perl) but once I'd got the basics in place with Euphoria it just
became really easy to prototype (and keep) something really functional and
useful. My next plans are for Euphoria CGI scripts to list open
call/trouble tickets and allow call details to be displayed. Infact the
possibilties are huge.
I really think that CGI is an area that Euphoria can compete in and win
hands down over Perl. Longer term I would like our company's external
website to have a Euphoria CGI script here and there and then it would be a
really good advertisement for the language. We've had the "Powered by
Apache" GIF images, now it's time for "Powered by Euphoria" GIF's!
Regards,
Andy Cranston.

Sounds cool, we can always do with more examples :)

Hi Thomas,
I've got things working quite nicely now. When I'm back in work on Monday
(24/06/2002) I'll grab a copy of the CGI scripts, put together a basic
README and ZIP it up for sending to RDS.
My next stage is writing some web pages to view open calls on my call
tracking system.
If I've said it once I'll say it again. Euphoria is such a great language
for protoyping. You can make something so quickly. Awesome...
Regards,
Andy Cranston.

Hello Thomas,
I've just submitted a little ZIP file to Rob called intphone which has the
code and a quick page of documentation. Should be on the RDS site in a day
or so I guess.

Andy C.
