I have some CGI scripts which I use to produce web pages
for monitoring the size of my databases. which uses similar
queries.
I was going to be packaging this up nicely at some point, but if
you think it might be of some use you can get a copy of it as it
currently stands from
http://www.rahu.demon.co.uk/pgstat.tgz
You should be able to untar it into your cgi-bin directory, and then
change the user/password etc. in PGSConfig.pm
You can then access it as
