I will have to look at third party offerings, I am sure. Are third party tools a foxISAPI implementation?

My original question should have been: Does foxISAPI (implemented with VFP MTDLLs?) provide objects to script html? If this is the case, then (could not) VBS, ASP or JS be imbedded in the VFP->HTML scripts(?).

I mistakenly assume that any return page scripting engines are a genre of CGI. Like some sort of 'in process' CGI service. Too simple - for sure.

But, that's all pretty messy and will perform very badly.
