Abstract
In this paper we propose a new approach to implement web services based on the Common Gateway Interface (CGI). Since we use the multi-paradigm declarative language Curry as an implementation language, many of the drawbacks and pitfalls of traditional CGI programming can be avoided. For instance, the syntactical details of HTML and passing values with CGI are hidden by a wrapper that executes abstract HTML forms by translating them into concrete HTML code. This leads to a high-level approach to server side web service programming where notions like event handlers, state variables and control of interactions are available. Thanks to the use of a functional logic language, we can structure our approach as an embedded domain specic language where the functional and logic programming features of the host language are exploited to abstract from details and frequent errors in standard CGI programming.
