I'm not sure what you mean by calling a CGI script.

<a href="http://toiletrage.co.uk/script.cgi">Click here to run the script!</a>

However if you web page has a form on it then the tag will be:

<form action="http://toiletrage.co.uk/script.cgi" >

You can learn more about forms at w3schools.com - HTML Forms and Input

Hope that helps!

Or there's also <!--#exec cgi="/path/to/whatever.cgi"--> for inline execution, assuming that the server allows it, assuming the appropriate AddHandler line is in place in .htaccess or httpd.conf to enable server parsing on the file in question, etc.
