I'm pretty sure you could whip something up with persistant includes and a command
line scripting language plus a touch of applescript. This simple photo gallery
<http://www.meggiemiao.com/photos/> was generated with one or two python
scripts and an applescript. I simply put all the photos into their appropriate
subdirectories and then run the applescript, which renames files (I think), generates
thumbnails, and then builds the web pages.
Most of the heavy lifting is done with Python (insert Perl or just about any
other langauge you want) while the Applescript just works at the top level.
Depending on where your data is stored, I could conceive of a Python routine
that either greps the data, queries a database, or just reads a line number for
the appropriate data in which to generate the page.
If there is interest I could dig up the scripts and post them.
