Hi,

not sure if I understand your question, but if it is that you want to
view the attributes of a shapefile in a webpage, you probably need other
tools.

For example, you could use php mapscript if you're into php:
http://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/by_example.html

Another option would be to install a Web Mapping Server/WMS (like
Qgis-Mapserver, Minnesota Mapserver or Geoserver), and use so called
getFeatureInfo requests (for the details of one feature), or template
files to serve pages with attribute data.

If you're on windows it's easiest to start of with osgeo4w
(http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/)
