MISWEB: MISCOMP Web Database Query Interface A Fermitools Special Product Readme File  |  Software  |  Documentation  |  Product WWW Pages Abstract Misweb is a web server based Common Gateway Interface (CGI) script, which allows web users to query an Oracle database directly from their web browser. By simply creating an HTML form with a few appropriately named variables, users can create their own web query pages. Misweb provides multiple means of accessing your database from the web. Pre-developed HTML query pages are served on any web server, which designate which database and tables to query. These pages may limit the queries to certain fields and records, or may allow the user to dynamically build their own query by picking the options of their choice. These pages also allow the user to view the complete SQL statement that would be executed or to make a new web page that contains all the variables required to achieve the same selections just queried. Misweb is installed on the web server. Clients using Misweb query pages to access their database need only use their standard web browser. No additional software is required on the client. Query page developers may house their web pages on the same web server as Misweb, on their own web server, or even on their local client machine. All that's needed is a call to the Misweb CGI script when the web form is submitted and the database query will return results to your browser. Note: MISWEB is a Special Product and is available only to those in the '.gov' and '.mil' domains from this server. A commercial version is available from Pioneer Consulting, Inc.
