I need someone to point me in the right direction.

I have an Access database that I created that is working perfectly.
Now, I need to be able to integrate the database with a website, and require
some direction and/or guidance.

The database is simple: One table that contains contact information, one
form to update the information, one query to search for a contact record, and
two reports to display the data.

What I need to do is this: I need a way for someone to be able to perform a
search for a contact by using an HTML or XHTML web-page on our website. It
would be an adidtional bonus if it is possible to make changes to the record
as well.

Can I do this with Access 2007 or do I need to have a 3rd party application
in between?

Other information that may help answer this question: The website is hosted
on GoDaddy. The person that will need to perform the lookups and make changes
(if possible), will be using IE8 on a Windows 7 computer.

Thank you in advance for all replies.
