Default Posting a database


I have an Access database I would like to incorporate into
my website for simple search function with no input by
visitors. When I try to post it, I get the message that my
server does not support asp pages.

My ISP is not MSWindows and has apache asp installed. Is
there anyway to get the database to work under these
circumstances?

Thank you.

You can only use Access on a Windows IIS server, this is separate from have
the ability to use ASP. Under a Unix/Linux server you would most likely use
MySQL as the database.
