Hi guys, I don't know where to ask this so I'm hoping my fellow hosters will have an idea. I'm looking for something I don't know if it exists.

I'm looking for a PHP software that will load up a MySQL database and allow the end-user to add records, search, delete, etc. Not like phpMyAdmin though (too complicated)... Just something very simple and basic that will work like a very simplistic database. I'd code it myself but I'm wondering if there's already something that's pre-made that I can use as-is or modify to my needs.

Any suggestions? Thank you!

You could use the scaffolding feature of CodeIgniter to do this. It was created to allow you a way to very quickly start adding, editing, and deleting records from your database:

Thanks for the response! I've been looking into webapp frameworks like CodeIgniter, Symfony, and CakePHP but I'm totally overwhelmed by it... I'll take another look at them though... I guess this is the way webapp development is moving towards and I better take the time and learn it....
