[Haskell-cafe] Re: Can I use Haskell for web programming

I think it would be interesting to ask some professional site to install hsp, before I go to the cgi solution. If I want to do that, what should I ask them to install to get a full working environment, with access to SQL and other stuff? Maurício Niklas Broberg wrote:

hsp can be run in two different modes. Running the full-blown version with runtime system will probably be hard on a professional site, you would have to convince them to install hsp. But if you can do without the fancier bits, in particular application-scoped data, you can run hsp pages as ordinary cgi scripts. Look in the HSPR.CGI.RunCGI module.

They both look cool. Do you think I'll be able to find someone to host professional sites using those libraries?

Hi,

Can I use Haskell to do what people do with, say, PHP? More and more I have the need for that, and I've been looking into Ruby on Rails. Do you thing Haskell could be a choice? Of course, I don't need something exactly like PHP (for instance, I don't care if I can't insert code in the middle of xhtml pages. If I have to generate everything from Haskell code, I would probably like it. Also, CGI can be a choice). But I need reasonable efficiency and to be able to find someone to host my site. What solutions do you suggest me?

Take a look at WASH and HSP...
