Migrating to Roxen
Challenger can take care of many of the special features of other
well-known servers. Basically it is quite painless to switch to
Challenger. Below you will find the common special features of other
servers and how Challenger treats them.
Image maps
NCSA Image map tip
By adding a redirect from /your_cgi-bin_dir/imagemap/ to
/, Challenger will handle all files using the NCSA image
map script internally. This means that you will not have to change any
links to get your old image maps to work with Challenger.
Server Side Includes
Challenger is compatible with NCSA/Apache style Server Side Includes,
SSI. However, we suggest that you rewrite your files to take advantage
of Challenger's native features instead, features that can accomplish
the same things, but faster, mainly the various RXML commands.
By default, support for the execute script command <!--#exec
--> is turned off, while the others are on. This is controlled in
the Main RXML parser.
Server side includes are internally treated like RXML tags.
CGI
All your existing CGI scripts should work but be sure to read the
section on the CGI script module.
