Types of Web object

A WebSpeed Web object is an external procedure (a .r file) that can be invoked by a URL. The WebSpeed agent runs Web objects. WebSpeed applications are composed of one or more Web objects. The Web objects generate and update Web pages, and may also interact with data sources.
WebSpeed Web objects may be categorized according to the content of their sources. The four basic categories of Web objects are:
*Standard or static HTML Web objects
*Embedded SpeedScript Web objects
*CGI Wrapper Web objects
*HTML Mapped Web objects
All four types of source files, when compiled, become executable r-code that can be run by a WebSpeed agent.
