Hi, Renju,

Cosign should work equally well under Apache with PHP or Perl
(mod_cosign), under Tomcat with JSP (JavaCosign), or with your
favorite active content language under Microsoft IIS (IISCosign).

It seems like you're asking what programming language to use
in general.  We'd need a lot more information about the web
based application you are trying to write before we could help
you with this question, and cosign-discuss@xxxxxxxxx isn't
an appropriate mailing list for this sort of question.  You
might want to ask the question on www-sig@xxxxxxxxx instead
and describe your situation in detail there.

If I've misunderstood and you are actually asking how to do
certain things in one of the languages you mention above for
a site that is protected using Cosign, let me know.
