Lurker Comes Out Of Closet :)

I'm one of the beginnerest of the beginners. Downloaded REBOL a week ago. What I see looks nice. I want to use it on a web page but having the dickens of a time finding a web host which supports REBOL. How did YOU all find one???? -greg-

Heh. This has floated around for a bit already ;) Not sure what final verdict was. Me, when I use stand-alone REBOL scripts (haven't tried it actually /in/ an .html page yet), I simply installed REBOL in a subdirectory. My webhost provider has granted me shell access to his RedHat machine through SSH. So I logged in, did mkdir ./rebol, downloaded the appropriate binaries, put them in ~/rebol and voila. But like I said, this is for scripts in /cgi-bin. I see you're using Earthlink as well. What do you think it'd take to get REBOL Tech and ELN talking, so that ELN would provide REBOL cgi-bin and html scripting on their webhost solutions and personal pages? ;) --Charles

Hi Greg, Do you want rebol code embedded within html, or to do some cgi? -- Graham Chiu

When I called Earthlink, the tech commenced babbling about not doing dedicated servers, etc. Hadn't thought about just plunking REBOL into the user directory and chmod on it. Might just work. -greg-

Probably both at some point, Graham. Would like flexibility to use REBOL if desired is all. -greg-
