Hello Everyone


I have an inquiry that I would appreciate comment on. I recently discovered
that the WWW is based on the work that Apple/Bill Atkinson did that gave us
HyperCard. Hence the use of the term 'Hyper' in the description of the
language used on the Web. I am trying to connect a database to a Homepage
in order to give true searching access to images that I have here. Can I
therefore use HyperCard as the database? I know very little about it &
understand it only handles bitmapped black and white images. Is this
correct or do newer versions now handle colour images? I am running
Netscape as my browser, and cannot get it to recognise a HyperCard file so
far. Are there any HyperCard users out there who can help me here?


Looking forward to your replies
