Our PSC400 product basically does what WebFacing does, but it does it by
modifying the source code to replace the I/O opcodes with calls to an API.
Because of this, the converted programs run in batch, and thereby don't
contribute to the interactive CPW load.  Our interface is JavaServer Pages,
and so you can greatly customize the look and feel of your pages, but the
basic UI is HTML.

You mentioned that subfiles in HTML have an unacceptable flicker.  We see
such a flicked going between any two pages, but we've gotten around that
psychologically with a consistent background and banner, as well as
subsecond response time.  That seems to be enough, but I was intrigued by
your statement that seemed to imply you had circumvented this issue using
CGI.

I was just wondering how you had managed to do that.
