FTP is not a kind of account.   It is the File Transfer Protocol.   It is
one way to transfer file data across the Internet, whether from a program
like a browser or from a CGI program (written in PERL or C for example).

CGI does NOT have to be involved with an HTML page.   CGI will write HTML to
the client's machine if you wish (for a dynamically created page) but CGi
and HTML are two different things.

Cheers!
