    Set screen IIS vs. CGI

      Feature Microsoft IIS UNIX CGI
      Default location of HTTP documents x:\Inetpub\WWWRoot\ On the Apache Web server: /usr/local/http/htdocs/
      File extensions of HTTP files ".htm" extensions and ".asp" file type for server-side scripts ".html" extensions and ".cgi" file type with "Context-type:" in headers.
      Method to differentiate HTTP files and server-side scripts ".asp" file type ".cgi" file type with "Context-type:" in headers. A blank line between the end of the header and the beginning of the actual content is needed to avoid a "500 Server Misconfiguration error".
      Default file name "Index.htm" or "Index.asp", but configurable. "default.html"
      Default location of executables c:\Programs\ /cgi-bin/
      Default location of interpreter c:\Programs\Perl32 #!/bin/sh for Bourne shell scripts. #!/usr/bin/perl for Perl scripts.
      Method of passing data from Web server to CGI programs Temporaray files (which slows performance) Environment variable QUERY_STRING.
      "403 Forbidden" message   Permissions for user "nobody"
      Error Log Location Avoiding browser "404 Not Found" message   /var/log/httpd
      Error Log location With HTML:

      Chilisoft offers ASP on for Netscape Enterprise on Sun Solaris, was released during the summer of 1998. ChilBeans automatically converts Java components to COM objects.

      Login Security: Both Netscape and Internet Explorer support Basic Authentication. Basic Authentication sends the login name and password as unencrypted clear text. To handle a wide scope of people on NT systems, Basic Authentication is used. Internet Explorer is the only browser that also supports NT Challenge/Response. When using NT Challenge/Response authentication, HTTP Keep-Alives needs to be Enabled.  
      Changing Security: Start, Programs, NT Option Pack, Internet Administrator In a listing output from the command ls-l, the first character of the 10-character string -rwxr-xr-- denotes the file type, which is - for files, d for directories, and l for Symbolic links (files that is a pointer to another file somewhere else). A permission string such as "rwxr-xr-x" use three characters for each of three groups: the user, the group that owns the file, and others. (r) is read permission, (w) for write permission, (x) for execute permission, and (-) for no permission.

      Command chgmod 755 file.ext

    Set screen SSI: Server Side Include Directives

    • Files that contain SSI directives must be renamed to have an SSI file name extension of .stm, .shtm, or .shtml.
    • SSI files reside in the same directory as html files.
    • Input from SSI is interpreted as part of the HTML page

      The syntax:

        <!--#directive command parameter="argument"-->

      Examples:

        Last modified: <!--#flastmod file="somefile.htm"-->

      Notice from this example:

      • There are no spaces between elements
      • Commands are case sensitive.
      • Server Side Includes files have file extensions of ".shtml"
      • There are double quotes around the argument.


      <!--#config timefmt=%"r on %A, %B %e"-->
      <!--#echo var="LAST_MODIFIED"-->

        supplies the full document file path from the system root

      <!--#echo var="DOCUMENT_NAME"-->
        of the current document

      <!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL"-->
        of the server

      <!--#echo var="DOCUMENT_URI"-->

        inserts the value of an environment variables referencing the current page last changed.

      <!--#config errmsg="Whoops, the file doesn't exist!"-->

        sets the error message if the file "generic.txt" does not exist.

      <!--#include file="copyright.htm"-->

        inserts the contents of file "copyright.htm" directly into a document. This can save a lot of repetitive coding and make changes easy to implement.

      <!--#config sizefmt="bytes"-->
      <!--#fsize file="somefile.htm"-->
      <!--#config sizefmt="abbrev"-->
      <!--#fsize file="somefile.htm"-->

        inserts the size, in bytes, of the "somefile.htm" file in two formats: in bytes and the abbreviated kilobytes.

      <pre>
      <!--#exec cmd="/usr/bin/ls -al"-->
      </pre>

        inserts (redirects) the output from external program "ls" with parameter "-al" into the page.

      <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/guestbook.cgi"-->

        inserts (redirects) the output from cgi program "guestbook" into the page. This can create a significant security risk.

      The mod_include module that comes with versions 1.2 and higher of the Apache Web server processes these extended (XSSI) directives:

      <-- #printenv-->

        displays (for debugging) all the environment variables currently available in the web server's environment.

      <!--#set var="color" value="blue" -->

        assigns value "blue" to the variable named "color".

      <--#if
      #elif
      #else
      #endif

    Set screen Java Servlets

      JSP pages contain tag definitions at the beginnging of the jsp page:

        <%@ taglib uri="/tags/temperature" prefix="temp" %>
        <msg:echo message="Hi" />
        In the example above, the prefix is "temp" and the tag name is fixed in the tag's TLD (Tag Library Descriptor) file.

      The first time the JSP is invoked, it is compiled into a servlet and the servlet's service method is run. Subsequent calls use the same servlet by calling the servlet's service() method.

      Take the Brainbench certification test on JSP 1.1 or JSP 1.2
