PHP MySQL CGI ASP - Adding Support for Dynamic Content
This document explains how to add support for dynamic

To add CGI support, it will suffice to create a CGI

On the Web Service page that shows, scroll down to find the

in the cgi-bin directory will be treated as CGI executables.

CGI option and click the Add icon on its right.

Enter an extension beginning with a dot and
select the handler from the list:
