Have a look at mSQL and WDB. Recent versions of WDB have support for
mSQL. I've never used WDB but have been told that it's a great Web/SQL
gateway tool. Either that or you can get any of the script API modules
for mSQL access (available for Perl, Tcl/Tk, Python, ESL and soon REXX)
and write your own CGI's in the language of your choice.
mSQL is available from ftp://Bond.edu.au/pub/Minerva/msql. The script
language interfaces are in /pub/Minerva/msql/Contrib. You'll have to ask
archie about WDB.
