Can a cgi script shopping cart work on any web site?

No, cgi scripts need to be supported by your web server. Contact your web hosting company and find out whether they support cgi and perl. If they do, then you can install a cgi shopping cart. Take a cgi tutorial to learn the basics of cgi and perl. Download an open source cgi script shopping cart and modify it to meet your needs. Perl and cgi have been around a long time and most hosting companies support them.
