No. In CGI, a Euphoria program is called by a server, like Apache, which then returns a web page, completing an operation which is usually stateless. A EuphoRIA program is inherently stateful, because it would use its database to remember what has happened. Also, a EuphoRIA program would run locally, thereby not requiring all of the hassle of CGI (as in, existing on another machine, and the testing which is then made difficult due to that fact, etcetera). Finally, a EuphoRIA program would be persistent, allowing continuous computation and fetching of web pages, where my commands could be queued, with results coming in asynchronously, as opposed to the usual synchronous human usage of the Internet through a browser.
