See http://dozer.us.oracle.com:8080/ or go to Oracle's home page at http://www.oracle.com and look under Free Trial Software for the Web Interface Kit.
In particular, check out the "Auto Dealer" demonstration (the "Want to buy ..." link) - it is an example application that among other things does queries and creates HTML pages on the fly. It is running on the Web with a live database.
The application is implemented using the WOW facility, and since they consist of stored procedures executing within the Oracle7 engine, all of the facilities and characteristics of Oracle7 are available - so 100,000 records is not a problem.
The WOW core and example application are all downloadable; in particular you can download the application and use it as a template, modifying it as you want to make another application.
