Hi,

WebServer 2.0 is cool. You can create dynamic HTML using PL/SQL (as in WebServer 1.0), Java (yes! Java on server side), C++ and other languages. The key part of WebServer 2.0 is the WRB (Web Request Broker) that can call the java agent, the PL/SQL agent and so forth.

They offer also a Java class that allow you to access RDBMS and to create dynamic HTML as well. Try to get brochures of the product on Oracle. I got white papers at ODC'96 and they're very good to read.
