Jason,

>>What's the best way to return information in html format, or a format that can be hacked up to be displayed on a web page?

Hurry right over to www.west-wind.com for Web Connection, get your free download version, check out the white papers and the message board, and you won't be sorry! You'll get a GREAT product and GREAT support from the guy who knows this stuff insideand out and has made it easy for the rest of us.

While you're at it, get Rick's book, available on his website. Highly recommended. There are also several here who use Web Connection, so you'll find help readily available here and on Rick's message board.
