Free Web hosting recommendations?
« on: July 14, 2004, 05:20:22 AM »

Can anyone recommend a free Web host that will support REBOL CGI? I usually use geocities for my Web hosting, but they don't allow CGI scripts on thire free acounts.

I wanted to make a webpage that allowed my teacher to change the text content via a form or some other easy way. Is this possible in REBOL?

If the CGI thing didn't work out either, could  I do something like that in Javascript?
I know you can do something like that with Flash but I don't have Flash.

Try a google search for the free hosting:

And look at content management scripts at Hot scripts:

or

Hope this helps...

I know of none, which is very annoying.   It used to be possible on prohosting, but they changed their servers (or something) and the test page I had stopped working.  So I think the following is out of date...

http://hammer.prohosting.com/~rebol/rebol-...prohosting.html

There's a list of "rebol-friendly" sites here...

http://www.lexicon.net/anton/RebolFriendlySites.html

but they're mostly paid ones of course.  I'm with Nebularus, who I've found good, they being the first relatively cheap hosts with REBOL support I noticed.  US$6.99 a month.

Definately.  A forum like this is could be made in REBOL.

I've not used either, but I don't think so, as Javascript is client-side, (just a script in a webpage), and you'd need to be able to store the altered text on the server.
