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.
