    I haven’t done this is a long time (so the security model might have changed on me), but the trick was to configure the server to handle some translation. Say that you have the URL:

     http://example.com/applets/MyCode/1.0

    You set up the URL translation such that you handle http://example.com/applets with your CGI script, which then gets /MyCode/1.0 as PATH_INFO. You return whatever you need to return.

    Why do you want to do this?
