I have created a database with all my information in the table form. So is there any way that I could have put up the information as a webpage in a table form ?

Puzzled . ..

Once the data is in the database you can code your pages to display the data in any way you want - entire contents in a table, so many records pre page, 1 record per page, etc, etc.

You need to have a PHP, ASP, or some other similar programatic method to access the data and build your page to display the data in a table format.

There are many tutorials out there on learning to create web content dynamically from a database. You should start there.

Do you have a web hoster yet?

If not, be sure to get on that includes either of the above features. They will say so in their ads.

Anyway, you hoster has to support them and provide the tools has well (well, that part is best).

Check out Powweb.com They include PHP and some pretty handy tools for creating the databases and accessing them.

From what I know, PHP is free and can access sql databases...which Powweb provides as well.

You can, basically, create an sql datebase then write the code in PHP (which is a type of language for web pages) to access the data.

Your current data can be transfered to such a db, with a little work.

I'm not sure about the ASP stuff, but I'm sure it's a similar process. Basically, whomever hosts your Web page has to support those features.
