This directory contains examples to help you get started programming
your Netscape server and taking advantage of its advanced
capabilities. The Netscape HTTP servers support two programming
interfaces:

* CGI - The Common Gateway Interface is an interface used to allow
  your server to execute programs which handle forms, contact external
  resources, and many other things. While very flexible, frequently
  accessed CGI programs can place an undue burden on your system's
  resources.

* NSAPI - The Netscape Server Application Programming Interface is a
  method of interfacing directly with the server code as opposed to
  using external programs. The NSAPI is much more flexible than CGI,
  allowing you to implement your own custom access control techniques,
  translate custom format files into HTML or images, and control every
  aspect of the Netscape server's operation.

This directory contains the header files necessary to program the
NSAPI, and example NSAPI functions are provided. The examples are
written in ANSI C.
