One way is the use of ORACLE's Webserver. It is able to handle stored procedures a
a special kind of an URL.

An other approach is the usage of PERL cgi-scripts. PERL has a so called DBI interface
which is although available for ORACLE databases

see http://www.hermetica.com/technologia/DBI/

A third approach is to use JAVA. You can download a thin JDBC driver from ORACLE. Sorry, but i don't have the URL in the moment. Just try a search on there
homepage :-)
