easiest way to show data on html page
Hi,
I'm building a web page locally on my macbook pro desktop. I have data that I'd like to display one row at a time. Does anyone have suggestions on where to start? Do I need a php server for this? Or can this be done with quering just plain text, cvs or an excel sheet, say j-query?
Thanks in advance

Yes, I have some development background, but its been a few years. So, I'm not sure whats new out there that may have simplified things in the last 5 years. I was thinking something in j-query off hand, but maybe something else. I hate to be vague, but looking for some direction working from my local hard drive.
So, yes, looking for logic. I'd like to click next button and it goes to the next row, xml or whatever data parsed on the sheet.
Many Thanks,.

I should add that I'm working from a mac which is new to me. So, I didn't think installing IIS was good option. That's why I was thinking of some drop and go code, like j-query.

You have no knowledge of web development whatsoever?
What do you mean by: "... display one row at a time"? Like a table?
What do you want to do with the HTML page itself?
If all you want is an HTML representation of the data that you have you might find the Excel feature "Export to HTML" kind of useful... if you're trying to build something with some logic then it will require a bit more knowledge.
