Gaming DB Questions
Howdy;

Ok first off let me explain what I'm using DBMAN for, I run a little gaming league for a computer game over the net. I have players and Admins using the DataBase (DBMAN) with most likey two data files. One for something called stables (kinda like a company) and the other for players. The players work for stables.

Ok with the basics of the database structure out of the way, here are my questions.

1) is there a way to have A field (not all fields) displayed on a standard webpage? Example: Lets say i have added a few records with three fields, name, address, and email. I want to show just the Name from all the db entries on a standard html web page.

2) can I have DB man link 2 DB's? For instance the players do work for the stables (in the game) and therefore should show up when the stable is quarried. Or do I have to do that another way? (if i could insert html code like in the first question then i can handle this problem alone)

3)I have to run DB from a HTML page so is their anyway to have DBMAN login inserted in a normal html page? example: I have frames on my page and would like to have the login screen in my main frame and then go to another web page, NOT the DBMAN interface. So having a normal HTML login would allow me to do that but DBMAN don't. ( could I use a cookie that dbman would read?)

Thanks for helping out us rookies figure out this thing.
