Common Gateway Interfacesearch for term

A standard for how a Web server communicates with external programs. CGI specifies how to pass arguments to the executing program as part of the HTTP request and defines a set of environment variables. Commonly, the program generates HTML that is passed back to the browser, but it can also request redirection to a different URL. This interfacing allows for interactive sites instead of just static text and images.
