Scripts & SSI's

Many functions on a server are implemented through scripts of various kinds. WebServUSB allows use of the following scripting languages listed below. In some cases the core language will need to be installed on your server so the scripts may be used.

Note** On most server systems you need to set permissions for scripts to operate. This does not need to be done on WebServUSB as it is already set in the program for you. If you are testing scripts locally - remember to set all your permissions when you upload the script to your host server.

Scripts reside in the script folder
