RE: remotely root file view

Hi,
do you need to see just a content of remote ROOT file? You can create a cgi script invoking root remotely creating a plot/histogram image which will be sent to the web browser .. or you can help me to give a new life to the carrot - apache module which had this capability: i.e. browsing ROOT files/trees on remote web server, querying trees and getting results.

Regards. Valeriy

Hello Rene,

>>root > TFile *f = TFile::Open("http://root.cern.ch/files
>>/pippa.root");

 I know this technique. And this is inside root session.

But my question is "without opening ROOT session". can we see the plots and histogram which are saved in a root file. Is it possible in the internet to
view contains in remotely where root is not installed? (May be by installing some plugins in the remote PC). Is it possible?
