1. Overview for the Impatient

Apache::OWA lets you run PL/SQL that produces web pages. There are two pieces required to make this work; Apache, and the Oracle PL/SQL Web Toolkit. The Toolkit provides an API to the CGI environment that can be accessed through PL/SQL packages. These packages (OWA%) also provide methods for filling a PL/SQL table (htp.htbuf) with output that gets sent back to the client. Apache::OWA initializes the PL/SQL CGI environment, and delivers the contents of htp.htbuf back to the client.

Download the latest version, and follow the Installation instructions.
