With Oracle you can use their Web Application Server. This has a cartridge ( cgi program ) that allows you to call Oracle PL/SQL. If you are not familiar with PL/SQL it is a procedural version of vanilla SQL, which allows you to use variables, loops, if, else etc and manipulate the Oracle database. Oracle provide a Package (set of functions) which allow you to easily produce web pages through your programs using data from your database.

You can also use plain SQL statements through an ODBC cartridge.
