Hello all! I am wondering if there are any [B]free ? [/B] editors that [B]create PHP[/B] forms that access and edit [B]MYSQL databases.[/B]? After having a go, asking, but still failing ? with hand-building such a form, I am going to try what I did with DHTML – Look at the code output of a WYSIWYG editor to try and learn the lingo of the code.?
p.s. I said DHTML because i did that with HTML and Javascript – I didn’t mis-spell HTML or XHTML.
@sturz001authorJul 24.2008 — #Sorry, I should have been clearer. I would like a wizard that I can enter a few details about what fields I would like and what SQL database/table to connect to. I can edit the styling myself. I would just like a wizard to do all the complicated stuff.
@NogDogJul 24.2008 — #I do not know of any free products. The sort of thing you're talking about sounds like [url=http://www.codegear.com/products/delphi/php]Delphi for PHP[/url].

something like Formhandler...? I have used it a few times and it seemed easy enough.
@sturz001authorJul 24.2008 — #[B]Nog Dog you are a star[/B] bang on the money 1st time! Looks like it's not free, though. Will try the free trail and post back with speed to tell you guys what has happened!
if you wish to find a CMS that comes with form making feature, have a look at wordpress or silverstripe's form making interfaces. Drupal guys are working on it too and this thread here has a lot of good references.
if you think you can afford to rely on hosted services have a look at Jot forms
if you're an experienced PHP developper, have a look at cakePHP or any good CRUD generator..
