I'm designing an intranet for a business running a windows server and using a 4D database system. I'm trying to integrate the two and having a few problems. There might be alternative methods for completing these tasks, so if you know of any, please let me know, since it seems like 4D isn't very commonly used in this way.

1. The database keeps track of all the employees birthdays and dates of hire, so when it's one or the other, 4D sends monitors around the building the information and it displays the name, whatever is going on and a picture.

I want to do something similar on the intranet. The DB can drop the appropriate picture, name and occasion in a folder.. but I don't know how to pair the two up (assuming there is multiple in one day).

Basically, I don't know how to put in 4D variable code into the HTML/PHP code and make it the two coexist. But, like I said, I thought there might be another way to do this that makes it easier on me by not using the DB as much.

I appreciate anyone's help or ideas.
