Kelly,
You don't need JavaScript to do this. BTW, JavaScript is for client side scripting (except on iPlanet HTTP servers) so you can't use it to access data directly.
There are several options available for doing CGI programming in RPG. CGIDEV2 is very popular and there are several other similar packages available.
You'll likely get more responses to this on the WEB-400 list and this question comes up from time to time so it would be a good idea to spend some time searching through the archives there.

Subject: RPG CGI?
I've been using Shannon O'Donnell's Step by Step article (very helpful) and
have built several "informational" web pages for internal use. What I'd like
to do is display a list of customers on a web page and let the user select
one by mouse click and then show some detail information (current orders,
backorders, etc.). I'm guessing that I'll need something on the web page
(JavaScript, ?) in order to recognize the mouse click and pass the data back
to the i5. Can anyone point me in a direction?
Thanks,
Kelley
