The Basics
HTMLDOC can be used in a variety of ways to generate formatted reports on a web server. The most common way is to use HTMLDOC as a CGI program with your web server to provide PDF-formatted output of a web page. Examples are provided for Microsoft IIS and the Apache web servers.
HTMLDOC can also be called from your own server-side scripts and programs. Examples are provided for PHP and Java.
| WARNING:
Passing information directly from the web browser to HTMLDOC can potentially expose your system to security risks. Always be sure to "sanitize" any input from the web browser so that filenames, URLs, and options passed to HTMLDOC are not acted on by the shell program or other processes. |
