Hello, 2006/6/30, Vincent Balat <Vincent.Balat@pps.jussieu.fr>: > I don't thing we can implement Ocsigen with CGI because our model is not "page > based" (with Ocsigen, you program web site as a whole, like a usual caml > program, you do not have a file for each URL). Ok, thank you for the information. BTW, the font for code example on the Tutorial page is very small, so small that it is hardly readable (with Firefox 1.5 on Windows). > We use our own web server to get more freedom than using Apache, and we are > happy with it.

Apache is a very complex piece of software but with a lot of capabilities, peer review and security updates. DIY-web-server just can't match. For me, being tied to your web server (or even Apache) is a very strong disadvantage. Best wishes, d.
