CGI = Common Gateway Interface
- The URL points to an executable binary file (program) on the Web server (not on the user's client computer).
- This program executes on the Web server (not on the user's client computer).
- This program can produce output that looks like a Web page and can be interpreted by a browser. This is a virtual Web page that probably doesn't exist on the server.
- Any file stored in the cgi-bin directory of the Web server is treated as a CGI program to be executed.
- CGI program files on the Web server typically have a .cgi filename extension.
