Are you referring to a CGI script written in RPG?  Although I havent
needed to do this, I've read several articles in magazines that
explain how to do CGI Scripts in RPG.

-- OR --

Are you looking for a client-side script (similar to JavaScript) that
would actually run on a loaded web page?  In this case, talking to
IBM (the makers of the server) won't help you.   This would require
the CLIENTS to change (i.e. Microsoft Internet Explorer and
Netscape Navigator/Communicator)  from the web server's point of view
this type of script is just text in a text file.

I suppose another way you could do this would be with a plug-in...
but... why?   In the internet world where everything is either based
on PCs or unix systems, why would RPG be a logical choice?  Most of
these people have never even HEARD of RPG.
