DB Application Development Using PL/SQL Server Pages (PSP)

PL/SQL Server Pages (PSP) allow developers to embed PL/SQL code within HTML pages, combining database programming and web page generation. PSP files use the .psp extension and contain special tags to denote PL/SQL code blocks. The Oracle HTTP Server processes PSP requests, executing any PL/SQL code to retrieve data from the database and generate a web page to return to the client browser. The document provides steps for downloading the Oracle Client, writing PSP code with HTML and PL/SQL tags, loading the PSP file into the database to create a stored procedure, and accessing the generated page through a web browser.

DB application development using

PL/SQL Server Pages(PSP)



PL/SQL Server Pages (PSP)
Author web pages using script-friendly HTML
authoring tools.
Drop in PL/SQL code within HTML code using
scripting tag <% %>.
In short:
PSP: embedded PL/SQL within HTML
Syntax of PL/SQL Server Pages
Same script tag syntax as in ASP and JSP: <%
PSP files should have .psp extension
Can be as simple as an HTML page (no PL/SQL
script)
How: The Oracle HTTP Server receives a
PL/SQL Server Page request from a client
browser. Gets data from DB then shows it to
user

Syntax of PL/SQL Server Pages
PSP Element Name Specifies . . .
<%@ page ... %> Page Directive Characteristics of the
PL/SQL server page.
<%@ plsql ... %> Procedure Directive The name of the stored
procedure produced by the
PSP file.
<%! ... %> Declaration Block The declaration for a set of
PL/SQL variables that are
visible throughout the page,
not just within the
next BEGIN/END block.
<% ... %> Code Block A set of PL/SQL statements
to be executed when the
procedure is run.
<%= ... %> Expression Block A single PL/SQL expression,
such as a string, arithmetic
expression, function call, or
combination of these.
