Thanks for commenting LanX

We did what you outlined above: run the mojolicous daemon on a virtual server on a Windows pc, and link to the generated search page from the main site.

The script is in my my scratchpad, and the interface is a just a form web page.

And, yes: using one app that would be run in the browser using WebPerl would have the same problem as distributing an exe that would be run on every interested user'pc: how to prevent users from getting access to the mysql server directly.
