RJMEZA is an unknown quantity at this point
javascript:function

Hello,

I'm new with javascript and would like to know if "javascript:function
could somewhat query a specific column name and records in a *.csv file (or) excel.xls file format.

I'm presently researching VRML modeling, I'm trying to integrate javascript so an Ascii file or Excel database so I could identify 3d ojects using existing "Anchor" node, (i.e. Anchor { url "javascript:function ????" description "My Model"

By "clicking" on the object the script would return an output value to
a frame or window.

My sample database would be:

description find_no remarks location
my stuff 1 testing south end
stove 2 too hot north end


example output to a frame or window when you click the object

-----------------------------------------------------
description| find_no |remarks| location |
------------------------------------------------------
stove 2 Too hot North end|


If know of anyone, I would appreciate an example.

Thank You.

Rick Meza

glenngv will become famous soon enough
Javascript runs on the client, thus it can't access the server and the database. So you need a server-side language to do it.
