It's really simple,

You have a component nammed gb.web

For a cgi, you need first have an http server like apache or other that 
support cgi... 

Then you make first simple app like :

Public Sub Main()

  Response.Begin()

	Print "<H1>This is my first Gambas CGI<H2>

  Response.End

End


Then you make the executable and store it in your cgi-bin path 
(generally /usr/lib/cgi-bin by default)

and you try it in a navigator : http://localhost/cgi-bin/mycgi.gambas

Simple,
Look at the doc at http://gambasdoc.org in the gb.web doc

gambas doc is a gambas cgi as well as http://www.gambasforge.net

So all is possible
