As a rule, the script is a program or a program file- script. Well, if to be extremely precise, the script is almost every executable procedure. If we talk about Internet technologies, the term “script” is somewhat narrower and can be described as an executable procedure written in any programming language or which is executed by the server on request, came from specified web- page.

Application field of the script is huge. For example:
with help of them the user can access the database
seo-scripts, which help promote the site
monitoring of visitor statistics (counts of attendance)
to make entries in the guestbook
to write comments
all the cms and forums are based on the scripts
they support dynamic display of the web site
scripts allow you to organize the changes of the site without reloading of the entire page
etc.

Location of the executed script on a network may be different. For example, a script can be located on the same server, where the calling page is. As an option – the script is hosted on another, i.e. remote, www-server. Since by running the script, the commission of any act happens, we must always remember that this procedure may not always be useful (i.e. it is not safe for the server owner). In particular, for this reason, not all servers are allowed to execute scripts – usually providers specifically stipulate the conditions for granting such opportunity. Scripts can be written in different programming languages! The only condition – is the availability of the compiler (interpreter) of the language on a remote server.
Since the classifieds scripts are present in almost all websites today, probably you want to know – how they look like and how they work.

CGI-script – is a program that runs on a web-server on the client’s request. Client, in this case, is the visitor of the website. In principle, one could argue that as software, CGI-script is not different from MS Word or the same Explorer. It is very important just to realize that CGI – is not a programming language on which the script is written itself, but only Common Gateway Interface, i.e. specialized interface, through which run of a script is triggered and further work is performed. It has been said that running of scripts on a remote server may be unsafe – CGI-scripts are not exception to this rule. Since the hosting providers may prohibit the implementation of cgi on their servers, then before you start your Internet project, you should just make sure that such a restriction is not provided.
The name of the script must have the .cgi extension, and it will be in the directory cgi-bin.

Do not forget to assign the script attribute “executable” (script – is a program). If your script writes the incoming information in the file, the file must be made writeable. Most often, free scripts come with a full description of its setting – by reading of help-file, you not only quickly cope with the task of installation, but also receive more detailed knowledge how they work within.
