The Userland community has made attempts to create an ODBC hook to a 
database. I've not been able to use it, but you may. There are other 
options. First, Frontier is a database so your dates can be stored in a 
db.root. You may also be able to use RPC to another RPC controller that 
does work with mySQL.

Others will have more detail.

typially, i think i would have to store this data in a database and
then retrieve from it. is it possible to connect to a sql or access
database from userland to display dynamic pages? how should i go about
with it? pls help.</smaller></fontfamily>
