Re: how to figure out if python was used as a cgi script

is there a way to figure out which scripting language was used in
a cgi. I used to watch extensions (i.e. py, pl, asp or php)

I'd say that ASP and PHP are rather rarely used for CGI scripts.
Also, extensions are essentially meaningless.

nowadays i hardly see any extensions and really it is hard to find
out anything from the generated HTML or even the HTML being sent
out through the FORM tag .. is there another way to find out which
scripting language was used in website!!!

Since this is a Python NG I suspect you have something you'd like to
achieve using Python regarding this topic. What is it?
