I guess the XML functions of 8.3 + an XSL stylesheet should do the
job... my 2 cents,
e.

I'll take a look at them. Anyone have a recommendation for a CGI
interface? I've thought about it enough to want to try it. I don't
really know how APEX / HTML DB work so I'm open to suggestions. I can
either put the controller in a perl module and send intelligent
requests for formatted pages to postgres or I could attempt to put a
controller into pl/pgsql.

It is amazing to me that a similar project doesn't already exist. I am
still looking though. I think many people have written functions that
output tables into formatted html, Excel and pdf formats.
