whats the cgi-bin for? I've always wondered that
 

and isn't cgi supposed to be old and slow? why is it still being used today? Tons of interactive sites still have cgi-bin in their url but I thought they'd be using something faster.

for cgi scripts maybe?

its like a recycle bin, but for cgi

Perl programs can be slow.. but some scripts are written in a programming language called C which are pretty fast, and use that same directory. :)

is the bin where the prosessor is, or where the scripts are stored?

:eek2

So, what exactly do you do, again?

how about for cgi binaries :BangBang: :)

Sorry dude had to do it

Ill give you example UCj Trading Script written in C and runs in cgi-bin

C is fast

I am good looking if i was a file i would have my own cgi-sexy directory

I always thought it was where the dirty cgi socks went before laundry day...

...who knew.
