CD-based browser application

Asked by bobfoley in Miscellaneous Web Development, Web Development

I want to create a browser based application that will work from a CD, but will read in variable content from a fixed database on the CD, and also read from and write to another database, stored on the user's hard disk.

I know how to do this over the web, but I can't figure out the best way to do it offline, from a CD. Ideally I'd use asp (tho php or Perl are options) and ideally I would not want to install anything at all on the user PC (or Mac) apart from a database (and ODBC registry entries, or similar, if that is part of the solution).

P.S.

There is further clarification of the problem in my comments, below. Many thanks to all for answers so far: it seems to be something 'devoutly to be wished for'. Maybe I just have to bite the bullet and do a stand-alone thing, or use Macromedia? Hope not!

I adore XML, but I don't see how it helps in this case. If it does, I'd love to know! We could assume that most up to date browser (IE and NN/Mozilla) could be available on CD: no prob with that.Start Free Trial
