I just realized palms can probably use any HTML with a web
browser.  That is if you have a network connection with
them.  Should be very easy then if you don't mind using your
AS/400 as the web server.

I supposed you would if you planned on doing palmos
programming anyways.  So why not make it easy.  :)  Hey, you
can even get web servers for the Palm.. but why would you
want that...hehe..
