Once you've created your HTML documents, you can easily establish a link to a COBOL program, whether it is your main application, a client or server subprogram, or a CGI program. In most cases, this involves using an HTML source editor or word processor to edit the HTML document you created with your authoring tool. You can use this same editor to "tune" your HTML tags later, once the site is operational and you have enhancement requests.
The procedure for establishing a link to COBOL programs varies with Web server platform and Web deployment method. Click here for instructions on creating links for the helper application/viewer. Click here for plug-in instructions. Click here for CGI instructions.
