Is it possible to submit a form (html) using ACTION to call an openGL program in C++ as a CGI script and make it run on the web? To get text or images I know I can use
"Content-Type: text/html" or "Content-Type: image...".

Hi !

Yes, but you need to turn it into an ActiveX application to be able to display anything, but an ordinary ActiveX control cannot display accelerated opengl, I have no idea how to do that.
