If the are a UNIX CGI plant then they probably run PERL which then you can use DBI; this is much different then writing HTML since PERL by itself can't include raw imbedded html. So, I suggest using PHP it should be easier for you to make a transition to then a pure old fashion CGI script.
Look below <?php mysql_connect() ?> <h2> I connected </h2> <?php # do something else ?> <h2> More html </h2> Check out www.php.net and PHP for programmers by WOX publishing.
