Putting standalone on internet

Post by sel203 » Tue Apr 14, 2009 10:07 am

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm fairly new to the world of programming and creating webpages but I've managed to create a webpage for myself in order to put my experiment which I programmed on Revolution on the internet. It's a gambling task that asks people to make certain decisions, and their data goes into a folder afterwards. I was wondering if it is an easy task to put my experiment in a webpage for individuals to go to so they don't have to download the files and easily get my data off? And how I would go about doing this?

Many thanks in advance,

Sel203

Revolution's runtime engines can be used on just about any Linux, Windows, or OS X server as a CGI, so you could build an HTML form as the interface to call that CGI, and the CGI can then process the data and return the results.

For details on getting started using Rev as a CGI, there's a section of these forums dedicated to that:
