WHY I WROTE THIS TOOL?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- - Did you ever had the wish to change the data of your database-table in
  a easy way?
- - Are you fed up with altering database-tables with UPDATE <table> ...-
  Statements?
- - Did you dreamt of a Database-query-function available over the
  intranet or the internet?

Then this tool is the right thing for you!

WHAT FOR IS THIS TOOL?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WWWdb allows you to access your database-tables with the
HTML-browser of your wish:
- - Netscape
- - lynx, w3m
- - KDE-Browser
- - and other browsers ...

You can create a configuration in a config-file, where the layout of
your table is described. The data is displayed in a HTML-table and you
can set different attributes (bold, italics, fonts, sizes,
justification, etc. ...)

With this file WWWdb generates dynamically HTML-pages, where you can
browse, insert, alter and delete your data. To give you more
flexibility you are able to write plugins in perl-subprocedures for
checking fields and doing many other things.
