I am breaking under the strain of trying to be a genius in too many fields. I come to this world as a designer and fine arts major who is forced to learn code, but I'm worn out trying to advance skills in Flash, 3D, etc. {I also use a Mac}.

What I'm crying for is a PHP/MySql WYSIWYG interface that would work like a local database [Filemaker Pro, Excel, etc].. I'm going brain dead trying to learn to program and UltraDev/ CF / ASP is not an answer because it is primarily a WIN NT and WIN PC solution and, my clients use Unix as a host.

Are there tools now or soon to come that will allow you to create a PHP/MySql interactive site with code like you can now with other programs or Filemaker?

I'm about to give up on web work I'm so overloaded. I'd need to go back to college for 4 years to catch up on what's going on now.

Jefferis, let me make you happy: www.interakt.ro and browse to Products > PHAkt

In the extensions section at this site you will fid lots of PHP compatible extensions. They are in the APPS folder, and the APPS > PHP folder.

Besides that also check out www.massimocorner.com and www.basic-ultradev.com for the PHAkt server model.

When you have questions you can aks them in out PHP forum. We do have a wonderfull support team there.

I hope you like it <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

The FAQ states that they've tried to test it on a Macintosh, but don't have one.
Any idea how it works for Mac users?

Thanks

Just another followup question: is there a corresponding product that helps with the database creation and management in MySql on a remote unix site [ or locally on Mac OSX] that is WYSIWYG?

Part of my problem is that I'm having trouble trying to create an intuitive workflow to integrate PHP with MySql. PHAkt seems like a good interface for creating the php code, but not for creating and managing the offsite database. ?

Could you please post your questions in the PHP forum? The moderators there are able to give you better answers.

Thanks.

This one is web-based:

phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/ and works very will for me under OS X/Apache.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
And there is at least one OSX app in the works that provide a GUI for mysql on OSX. I can't things of the name, though you could probably find it by searching at mosxapps.com
