Web-based MySQL forms

db

Anyone have any advice about creating quick and simple web-based MySQL forms? Or even non-web-based GUIs...maybe an application I can configure to update and add values to a table? I want something fast and reliable.

PHPmyadmin?

phpmyadmin gives you a web based interface for accessing and updating MySQL databases.

I'm looking at Ruby on Rails too.

I'm really clueless about Ruby, but it looks like it might work. Is phpMyAdmin something you'd want to turn loose on "users" who only need to just do a basic input/update function? Can you create tiny subset forms that regular users can use without full access to the database?

No

No, it's a web based way to access and/or edit the database tables directly. Sounds like you need a specific app to only access/update what you want rather than give full access to the whole database.
