To maintain a consistent environment between the Windows Web servers and the UNIX Web servers.

Windows Web server, IIS, creates a folder called Scripts. This folder is located in the Inetpub directory (\Inetpub\Scripts). (Applications or scripts are typically run from this directory on IIS.) A virtual folder called cgi-bin can be created to point to the Scripts folder.

UNIX Web servers (such as Apache) applications or scripts are run from the cgi-bin directory. A virtual directory called Scripts can also be created to point to the cgi-bin directory.

To use the online examples, the Web server needs access to the information provided in the WebContent folder provided with FlashConnect.

Create a virtual directory called w3library to point to the WebContent directory to allow the browser access to this information. For more information on performing this task see Installing on a Windows Platform.

On UNIX platforms, these steps are done for you as part of the standard installation process, see Installing on a UNIX Platform.
