Simplest is to select with a command line tool, and deliver it as Content-Type: text/plain

Nest step up is to postprocess it with sed ( '&' = '&amp;' , '>' = '&gt;' , etc.) and embed into <PRE>...</PRE> in your HTML page.

Next step up is to postprocess it into an html table <TABLE><TR><TD>cell a1<TD>cell a2...</TABLE>.

I often add a leading marker column to help the postprocess find the header and cells: SELECT 'dAtA' as "dAtA", ....

Beyond that, there is PHP that runs queries to build the web page, and the whole gamut of web generation tools for ODBC, JDBC and proprietary to each RDBMS.

bup-ftp(1)						      General Commands Manual							bup-ftp(1)

NAME
bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory SYNOPSIS
bup web [[hostname]:port] DESCRIPTION
bup web starts a web server that can browse bup repositories. The file hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and bup-ftp(1). hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence bup web will only offer up the web server to locally running clients. If you'd like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dangerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all avail- able interfaces: :8080. EXAMPLE
$ bup web Serving HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8080... ^C $ bup web :8080 Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0:8080... ^C SEE ALSO
bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1), bup-ftp(1), bup-restore(1) BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite. AUTHORS
