Sorry, but you were told already that on the PC should run a -dedicated- webserver. It is not "some server software" but specifically "webserver software". Apache and Xitami come to mind. And if you use a script: A cgi script needs a cgi executable that interprets the script. The cgi executable should be started by a webserver. I.E. mypage.php could be a script, php.exe the cgi executable and Apache the webserver. Hans.
