I have designed a website with iWeb (Mac) and I need software to program interactive data for a baseball website. (schedules, scores, standings, rosters, etc.) What program would you recommend? (currently using Mac OS 10.5.6)

re: Mac dev tools


that depends on your experience with web-technologies ... i guess you want to query a database? since there will be some serverside code involved which language do you prefer?

kind regards

Hi gits, I am familiar with VB, C, a little java. I don't need to query, just display data such as scores, standings (calculated from the scores), rosters and schedules (which are pretty much fixed data tables). I have the web pages set up - I just need to add the data containers such that I can upload schedules and rosters. I would like to be able to input scores and have the standings calculated (pretty simple - I can do it on excel spreadsheet) Any ideas?

then you would need some serverside script that processes the uploaded files and create the html output ... now have a look at your server to see what it supports ... since you would need to have the code executed there ... another option would be to prepare your pages at your local machine and load them up as static pages ... in this case you could use whatever you want ...
