All,
I am sure that there must be some dynamic Web sites backed by COBOL -
however, I'm having trouble finding any. Can anyone point me in the
right direction?
Thanks,

Just a sample dynamic site. Most of the COBOL-based (back-end) are made
of CGI applications. The sample site above uses a combination of new
emerging technologies that is COBOL COM object (DLL), AJAX and ASP
technology.
Try entering information/numbers into Account No... and letters into
Account Name field.
AJAX (Async Java/XML technology) provides the "Account Name" entry
field javascripting listbox. ASP is basically the page you're viewing
which is used in formatting text/graphices and server-side data
extraction. COBOL COM object (COM+) is a server application that
extract data (to/from) directly from a .DAT files (main account file,
account ledger file, hitory file).
I did this site to show IT people that COBOL is definitely "still" a
strong option for corporate use. The term "legacy" is putting the COBOL
language down.... but re-engineering legacy codes (as is) into
components makes a new ball game for everyone.
Good luck!
