We have a mysql database storing a bunch of scientific data and I have a cron script querying the database and making html tables of key data. Is there a way how this content (the resulting html pages) can be integrated and managed via drupal? Especially the link structure etc.?
It is very difficult to answer with this minimal information.
Sorry if I was terse. I'll try to do better:
I have data in a mysql database. In order to present this I (or rather a cron script) usually run on the command line something like:
echo 'SELECT * FROM footable' | mysql -h foo.bar.edu -u foouser -p --html bar_db > temp.html
Then a webpage.php file adds some more headers, css styling etc. and presents this page. Something like:
http://files.getdropbox.com/u/118481/mqsql_html.jpg
Unfortunately there are several such "autogenerated" pages and it is hard to keep track of up-to-date menus, links etc. I was wondering if this was facilitated by Drupal. Maybe even if Drupal was the right tool for this job at all.
