I've been a faithful Mac user for years, and I have a question about database-driven web pages and Filemaker. I'm rather new to Filemaker but am very interested in learning about creating web pages that are driven by a large database that I used Filemaker to create. For a longtime Mac user who is very experienced with web design (though not with CGI/Perl), what's the next step? Is there a book or resource that I should buy? When I look on the web, these lessons are always Access and Windows oriented...Is there a great Mac resource, since I don't want to use Windows at all?

I'm a pretty quick learner, but I don't know where to go next. Thank you in advance for any help or direction you can give me.

I'm just now looking into this, too -- I've been named Software Librarian at my company and I thought a FileMaker Pro database would be a good way to keep track of what's checked out. Here's the most helpful URL I've found so far:

Hope this helps.

Thanks very much. That helped somewhat, though I welcome any other advice.

BTW Jeff, I'll post what I find, as well.
