Hi Terry, Thanks for the scenarios illustrating one of the reasons why a CGI version has so much value. We can all be running WebDNA on $2 per month "commodity" hosting services when a CGI version becomes available ... and so can all our clients and millions of other folks. Sincerely, Ken Grome > I go along with the idea of a cgi version. Being able to > put a WebDNA site on any server would be a big coup.
