Thank you very much for your quick and informative response ;o)
It is persistence I am seeking, I'm investigating if newLISP can act as a http web app server behind a proxy server, indeed I'd like to be able to spin up multiple newLISP 'servers' (on separate ports) and use nginx to load balance between them...allowing for concurrent connections.
I'd prefer not to use .cgi as I'd like to make MySQL connections once, not every time the script is called. I tried to download your 'ranwar.tgz' link earlier, thinking this may be what I am looking for....do you think it might be?
An alternative is to create a http server using the inbuilt socket library, however, there is clearly already http protocols going on...its how do I tap into those for a persistent web app server?
Best regards ;oD
