HTML Pages via REXX

As the old saying goes "necessity is the mother of invention".  That became true a year ago when I started putting together several forms to help my students keep track of their scores and grades.  It became quickly apparent that creating these forms is not fun and not having fun makes the task all that much harder.  Especially when it comes to repetitive forms.  Typing the same HTML code over and over is - hmmm, how shall we say it - well, aggrevating comes to mind.  Loathsome soon follows.

There is Netscape Composer that is somewhat of a wysiwyg composer of HTML, but even it can be tedious to use in certain circumstances. Here are three examples:  Example 1Example 2 , and  Example 3 .  While all of them can be done in Netscape Composer it would be time consuming and tiring.  The solution is to create REXX programs that will emit HTML code as its output and do it over and over without complaining.
