SYNOPSIS

        db_cgi.pl [options]

DESCRIPTION

This program will load a def object from an XML file and will display it using CGI methods. This is fit to be run inside a browser.

The idea is to let the user see the database definition in the most clearest form.

If you want to embed such a display in a larger system then just have a look at the modules used by this module since the script itself doesnt do much.
