One thing about MVSDS access is that even though it is presenting an MVS
dataset, if the dataset is valid HTML then the result is a "pretty"
web-page instead of just plain text.  For example, if the dataset you
are displaying has these contents it will present nicely:

<html>                                                       
<body>                                                       
<h2>Test Header</h2>                                         
<table width=750 border=1 bordercolorlight="#0000FF">        
<tr><td width="20%">Title</td><td width="80%">Link</td></tr> 
<tr><td>Data</td><td>More Data</td></tr>                     
</table>                                                     
</body>
</html>                                               

Personally I use a lot of basic CGI scripts to retrieve either datasets
or data and present it back in a standard web look.
