PKI Services provides two ways to implement and customize the PKI Services Web interface:

• Using REXX CGI scripts. This method uses a text template file.
• Using Java™ server pages (JSPs). This method uses an XML template file.

Both methods produce identical Web pages with the default files shipped with PKI Services.

This part includes the following topics:

• Customizing the end-user Web application if you use REXX CGI execs provides an overview of the pkiserv.tmpl file, which contains the certificate templates, and explains customizing the end-user Web pages when you are implementing them using the REXX CGI execs.
• Customizing the administration Web pages if you use REXX CGI execs provides an overview of the REXX CGI execs and explains how to customize the administration Web pages when you are implementing them using the REXX CGI execs.
• Implementing the Web application using Java server pages provides an overview of customizing the PKI Services Web pages when you implement them using the Java server pages.
