[REBOL] Re: How to find an Internet provider with Rebol CGI capabilities?
From: ale870::gmail::com at: 18-Jul-2007 13:34
Hello,
It sounds interesting.
What do you use as web server? Apache and cgi mod for rebol?
If needed, can I "mount" some extensions? Have you some libraries (extra
features)?
Which rebol version do you supply?
I'm a Rebol developer, and I wish to create a particular game in Rebol.
My problem is server-side: I wish to make it in rebol, but I could make it
even in java or php.
So I need to compare the services. Basically, a excluded java since
providers are too much expensive and limited.
So I have php and rebol.
Thank you for your help!
