If anyone has seen an : informix database used directly on the WEB please let me know. : I will pay for source code or binaries. : : Guy St-Amant : Gstamant@aol.com : Actually we have work around for WWW in Informix. Things goes like this 1. Front End Form accepts input & is passed to a shell script, which in turn will parse the input, sends it across as command line arguments to a 4GL program. 2. I have the 4GL program to display the computed process in HTML format. e.g DISPLAY "<html> <pre>" DISPLAY "<HEAD><TITLE> Sample Output of INFORMIX thru HTML </TITLE></HEAD>" DISPLAY "<B> Computed Value : ", variable, " </B>" DISPLAY "</html> </pre>" This may not be the actual solution, but it met our objective. -- Rgds, __________________________________________________________________________ Chetan Anand DHL INTERNATIONAL (Singapore) Pte Ltd Systems Analyst Singapore Internet : anand@sin-co.sin-ro.dhl.com Tel : 65+ 3805-804 __________________________________________________________________________
