VSE/ESA as a Web Server

The World Wide Web, also known as WWW or the Web, is the most exciting
and fastest growing information service to exist on the Internet.
Your VSE/ESA system can become an integral part of the Web by running
VSE/ESA as a Web server.

Do you want to know how to run VSE/ESA
as a Web server allowing Web browser clients to access information
stored on your VSE/ESA system?

This redbook describes how you can easily set up the required
basic components for the VSE/ESA Web server as well as more
advanced features such as CGI programs to implement Web access to
VSE/ESA business data or whole databases.

We show in a detailed and comprehensive way all the steps that
are required to set up and run VSE/ESA as a Web server using
the HTTP daemon of TCP/IP for VSE/ESA. Several practical examples
are presented to illustrate how to create a Web server home page
and make your Web site more appealing by adding links, graphics or
interactive features such as JavaScript or Java applets.

A detailed description of sample CGI programs including the source
code can help you to implement the Web access to your VSE/ESA
data and resources.

This publication is intended for system engineers or programmers
responsible for implementing VSE/ESA host integration into TCP/IP
based networks including the World Wide Web. It assumes a basic
knowledge of TCP/IP, Internet and WWW concepts and protocols and a
working knowledge of VSE/ESA.
