[dba-Tech] Dsiplaying MySQL Data in web page

I have a number of web pages where I don't really need real time access to
the MySQL data, it doesn't change that often. I'm using PhP now but would
like to display the data within some fancy java scripts. Is there a method
to use java to display data? Either directly from MySQL or via some
intermediate method such as writing the data to an xml file, etc.
