Introduction
	W3-mSQL provides a programmatic interface to the mSQL database system from within an HTML document. It enables the development of entire programs within a Web page while offering comprehensive access control and security features.
	Installation
	To install W3-mSQL on your Virtual Private Servers, connect to your Virtual Private Servers via Telnet or SSH and do the following, according to your Virtual Private Servers O/S: FreeBSD & Solaris Use vinstall to install W3-mSQL: % vinstall w3-msql % chmod 755 ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-auth ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-msql
	Configuration
	W3-mSQL enhanced HTML files must be pre-processed by the ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-msql CGI before the web server sends the results to the requesting client. Normally, this pre-processing requires the ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-msql CGI to appear in the URL of each W3-mSQL file on your site. For example: http://YOUR-DOMAIN.NAME/cgi-bin/w3-msql/file.msql The Apache Web Server can be configured to automatically pre-process W3-mSQL files with the .msql file extension. To setup W3-mSQL redirection, add the following lines to the ~/www/conf/httpd.conf file on your Virtual Private Servers (or the ~/www/conf/srm.conf file, if you Virtual Private Servers was configured before Dec. 8, 1998): AddHandler htmsql msql Action htmsql /cgi-bin/w3-msql After doing this, it is possible to access W3-mSQL files this way: http://YOUR-DOMAIN.NAME/file.msql The .msql files are automatically pre-processed by the ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-msql CGI without the ~/www/cgi-bin/w3-msql CGI appearing in the URL path.
	Sample Application
	A sample W3-mSQL application is also available for installation on the Virtual Private Servers. You can install the simple example by unpacking an archive file onto your Virtual Private Servers. % cd % tar xvf /usr/local/contrib/w3-msql-demo.tar Once the files are in place run the install script. % cd ~/www/htdocs/bookmarks % ./setup_bookmark You can then access the sample application at: http://YOUR-DOMAIN.NAME/bookmarks/Welcome.html
