I am trying to display data in Oracle on a WWW page. I checked //www.oracle.com but did not find the answers I need.

What I have now:

	WOW kit installed on the Unix server.
	HTML scripts.
	Package procedures to access oracle data(and to pass result to
		the page?.)
	

My questions are:
1. Should the package procedures be 'loaded' into the database, or should it sit in some file directory? How then are these procedures referenced in the HTML scripts?

2. Where is the link between the HTML page and the package procedure? How does the HTML script know what procedure to execute and where to find it?

3. There are some 'htp.*' functions in the procedure. What are they and where can I read more about those functions?

4. How to specify 'ACTION' in the HTML script?

5. From the HTML script, how to pass parameters to the package procedure?

6. Does 'wowstub' need any parameters?

Your help will be appreciated!
