  1. Find database software which is a) compatible with your server; and b) suitable for your needs (Oracle is overkill for what you want to do);
  2. Find a programming language compatible with / available on your server (both the machine itself and the web server software);
  3. Write an application in the programming language which accesses the database and displays the results in a manner which your browser will accept.

A lot of people are very happy with "LAMP" (combination of Linux / Apache / MySQL / Perl or PHP) for simple tasks. They also provide more information about what they want to do and which resources (hardware, software, knowledge) they have available.
