You can use your scripts to generate the HTML, HTML forms for input parameters, and input vars. You then use the $_GET or $_POST HTTP methods from forms or query strings (parameters) back to your scripts.

That is basically it in an nutshell.

You will need to rewrite your scripts to work with HTTP. Most people do this in PERL or PHP, BTW.
