From CGI Programming with Advanced Topics Jackson State University Mississippi -- Fall Semester 97. by Nancy McCracken *

Including a link to a cgi program on a web page will cause the server to activate the program. The server can be configured to recognize a URL as denoting a cgi program either through the file extension .cgi or because the URL is to an executable file in the part of the server's directory space for cgi programs.
