[rfc 3875](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875)
[server responsabilities](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.1)
[3.1: server responsabilities](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.1)
- The server [...] receives the request from the client
- selects a CGI script to handle the request
- converts the client request to a CGI request
- executes the script and converts the CGI response into a response for the client
[script uri](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.3)
[3.3: script uri](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-3.3)
- the 'Script-URI' [...] MUST have the property that if the client had accessed this URI instead, then the script would have been executed
[4: how the server prepare the cgi requests](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4)
- the cgi receives 2 differents set of informations :
- the request meta-variables,
- and the message-body
[4.1: request meta-variables](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4.1)
- a header field that spans multiple lines MUST be merged onto a single line
[4.2: request message-body](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4.2)
- unless defined otherwise, the script access request data by reading stdin
[6: how the response from the script is returned to the server](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6)
- The response comprises 2 parts, separated by a blank line :
- a message-header
- and a message-body
- The message-header contains one or more header fields
- The body may be NULL
[6.2: responses types](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.2)
- four types of responses :
- document response
- local redirect response
- client redirect response
- client redirect response with document
- document response :
- it must return a Content-Type header field
- a Status-Header field is optional (200 is assumed if omited)
- the server must check the cgi-script output, and modifie it to comply with the protocol version
- local redirect response :
- it must return only a Location field
- it contains a local path URI and query string ('local-pathquery')
- the server must generate the response for this local-pathquery
- client redirect response :
- it must return only a Location field
- it contains an absolute URI path, to indicate the client that it should reprocess the request with this URI
- the http server must generate a 302 'Found' message
- client redirect response with document
- it must return a Location field with an absolute URI path
- it must return the Status header field, with a value of 302 'Found'
- the server must check the cgi-script output, and modifie it to comply with the protocol version
[6.3: cgi header fields](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-6.3)
- whitespace is permitted between the ":" and the field-value
- but not between the field-name and the ":"
- the CGI script can set three differents fields :
- Content-Type
- Location
- Status
- Content-Type :
- if there is a body in the response, a Content-Type field must be present
- if there is no Content-Type, the server must not attempt to determine one
- Location :
- Status :

## cgi env variables
[cgi env variables](http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3875.html)
[cgi env variables](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3875#section-4.1)
[wikipedia variables environnements cgi](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variables_d%27environnement_CGI)
[cgi server variables on adobe](https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/reserved-words-and-variables/cgi-environment-cgi-scope-variables/cgi-server-variables.html)
```
AUTH_TYPE : if the srcipt is protected, the authentification method used to validate the user
CONTENT_LENGTH : length of the request content
CONTENT_TYPE : if there is attached information, as with method POST or PUT, this is the content type of the data (e.g. "text/plain", it is set by the attribute "enctype" in html <form> as three values : "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "multipart/form-data", "text/plain")
CONTENT_LENGTH : length of the request body-message
CONTENT_TYPE : (Content-Type field) if there is attached information, as with method POST or PUT, this is the content type of the data (e.g. "text/plain", it is set by the attribute "enctype" in html <form> as three values : "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "multipart/form-data", "text/plain")
GATEWAY_INTERFACE : CGI version (e.g. CGI/1.1)
PATH_INFO : if any, path of the resquest in addition to the cgi script path (e.g. for cgi script path = "/usr/web/cgi-bin/script.cgi", and the url = "http://server.org/cgi-bin/script.cgi/house", the PATH-INFO would be "house")
PATH_TRANSLATED : full path of the request, like path-to-cgi/PATH_INFO, null if PATH_INFO is null (e.g. for "http://server.org/cgi-bin/prog/the/path", PATH_INFO would be : "/the/path" and PATH_TRANSLATED would be : "/usr/web/cgi-bin/prog/the/path")
