| Is it possible to upload your code and make it work on a website? |

| No. The user would have to download the source and compile it in order to run it. Or you would have to compile it for Windows and upload that. I'm assuming you want to embed it into the webpage like an applet, and you simply can't do it with Turing. |

If there was a working Unix version (or if the Windows version had some way to access standard input/output) you could use it with CGI, theoretically. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface |

Take the next step and learn Java  .
Its a relatively easy, very structured language with an easy to use graphics API. Plus you can implement them in a web-page by making it a Java Applet. |

- Any language that can access standard input, output and environment variables can be used to write CGI scripts
- c++ has a sockets library (actually, I don't think it's standard, might be part of POSIX?) so you could write a web server that would serve the pages for you (skipping another webserver, though you might use a reverse proxy to route it to your program). There's even a c++ library for this (like ruby on rails), but I cannot remember the name. |

| Okay I know that it's technically possible, but it's not practical. It's easier to just rewrite your program in Java as an applet. |
