Carl Galgano mentioned net.data, and I think this is a great thing. You
can interface with SQL, as well as native programs, as I recall. It
generates HTML code on the fly, so it's sort of like CGI without some of
the pain. If you know REXX, you can embed that code directly. You end up
with a combination of HTML and net.data code in a text file. I found
that a simple HTML editor, even Netscape or Word or FrontPage, can give
you the skeleton into which you put the net.data script.

little paper comparing it to Websphere at
