    Question Access connection with Webform

    Please help me!!!
    I need to make a simple connection between an access database, and a simple HTML webform.
    I can set the form to take inputs and put them into the database, but I cant get the form to interact with the database when a user searches for records from the DB.
    Is it possible to do this without the use of ASP?
    When i enter some data into the form and it is saved to the database, the next time i load the page, the first record which i entered into the database is present in the text fields of the form. I dont know how to correct this problem and hope somebody out there with more experience than myself could help.

    Please suggest to me some alternatives, or point me in the direction of some information which could help.
    Your help and time is appreciated,
    Cheers,
    Clint

    Anybody correct me if I am wrong but as far as I know it is not possible to get a "pure" HTML page to connect to a database. You need to use some kind of server-side scripting (ASP, CGI, etc).
    How did you get your HTML page to post user input into the DB?

    Using data access pages through Access.
    They allow you to determine which form fields apply to which table fields.
