xataface is another one that comes to mind. Looked quite good when I played with it a while back, although I've not tried phpmyedit (thanks for the pointer).
Xataface and phpmyedit are quite similar, I think xataface is a little more sophisticated.
By searching for both xataface and phpmyedit in Google I came up with a couple of other similar utilities:-
DaDaBIK - http://www.dadabik.org/ DataPal - http://www.dbpal.com/
None of these is *quite* what I want though because they all produce a 'ready made' interface to the table[s] you specify. I'm looking for a tool which allows me to lay the interface out myself, preferably using drag and drop to move the data entry boxes around.
Xataface gets pretty close to what I want and I think can probably be customised enough to do what I want though. It's just that it's sort of backwards taking the 'standard' interface format and then configuring it to get what one wants. It would (probably/possibly) be easier if I could just draw the interface I want and then connect the database fields to the controls.
