Reading a remote Access database without ASP

Is it possible to read (queries, tables...) from a remote database (ie,
using its URL) without using ASP? I mean, I would like to write a web page
which gets data from an Access db which actually resides on a web site. This
page should be run locally but may be eventually published on the web: the
code could be written in javascript or something like that. Thanks for your
answers.

look into .Net Remoting. Ingo Rammer has good articles on the web and has
also written a good book on the subject. His code examples are written in
C#

If the permissions on the host machine allow it, one can access databases
with HTML, JScript and ActiveX Objects. This may not be generally known, or
accepted. But it happens. I have an entire HTA application which requires
nothing but WindowsXP and its (included) IE and ADO.

Is there no single windows or linux application tht runs natively to access a remote SQL data base? Any advise is appreciated. Thanks!!

I've managed to read from a local database using only javascript and the DAO ActiveX object, but I can't make it work with a remote database. When I change the connection string from "C:\..." to "http://..." it doesn't work any more. Any suggestion?

Hello: I'm doing some planning on a potential project with which I need some help. The database at the focus of this question is a MS Access database that is currently accessed by DAO from a local webserver. I need to access the same database remotely through TCP/IP. There will be potentially many transactions coming from both the web server and remotely, so the solution needs to keep the data safe in such an environment. However,...

Is it possible to call a remote php script from within Access? I'm thinking something like: DoCMD... http://www.domain.com/scripts/dataquery.php DoCmd.OpenQuery "update_data", acNormal, acEdit ..... So the PHP script does something on the server database, then when a linked table is viewed within access, the data changes have been made?
