Re: Is it possible to send a call to the CGI program without first rendering a page

I think you need to clarify exactly the scenario you want to achieve because the way you have worded that doesn't make much sense.

Is the request to the server (running on the iSeries) intended to respond with HTML (i.e navigating via a link, anchor tag or button) or is it a xmlhttprequest under the covers to a server that the browser is not yet connected to?

What does "respond with a status update call" mean?

However, I do need to respond with a status update call to the AS/400 using
CGIDEV.



Can this be done?
