We'd like to be able to update this without updating the website. Have a form that uploads the info into the table.

Also set up an appointment calender online using the same ideas. What I really need to know how to do is use the cgi by sending it to the table. I also would like to send info like an (application to work for us) through form fields to show up in email. - Thanks - Matt

You really want to either

A) Find something online for free, google search for 'perl cgi calendar'

B) Write your own app ground up.

This really is not a simple 'push a-b-c' kind of thing.

Check rentacoder.com as well. SOmeone would probably do it for fairly cheap.

You can use a server side include in your static HTML that calls a CGI app which builds the table for you.
