If it's written in PHP, you could consider publishing it using the PHP
Filter.  It will execute the php embedded in a node.  You'd still have
to mod it so the "clicks" worked out right, but it might be doable.
Much depends on the nature of the code you're executing.

Subject: [support] Wrapping around a cgi script


Hello,

I apologize for asking what may be a dump question or one that has been
answered before, i have searched the archive and the web for an answer
but maybe i am looking for the wrong terms, i can't find what I'm trying
to figure out. 

I have written a cgi that generates html.  I would very much like to
make this cgi be a node in drupal, or if thats not possible maybe a
"block"?  I just would like to have my cgi generate the center of the
home page with drupal blocks around it, and then any click on the drupal
blocks replaces  my cgi content with whatever would normally be there,
and any clicks in my cgi remain in that area of the screen.  Normally I
would use a frame but everything I find about frames and drupal says
"Dont Do It".  

Am I missing something terribly obvious, or is this impossible, or am I
just slow today?

Thanks for any advice
-Aaron
