looking for visual php development solution

[Rick]

Hi all,

I have recently been implementing php code in some web pages and am
now looking for a more visual oriented php development environment
because for example creating php/html forms by hand for the x'th time
is not exactly my idea of working efficiently. (Unlike some guys i
work with who seem to think this is an extremely cool working method.
:-/) I'm looking for something with an interface like delphi or vb,
and some of the more visual GUI based web scripting systems out there.
Something where i can click on a web site item, get to the code part
and then work on the code, or maybe first grab some prefab code by
using a template or some kind of code library. I'm sure someone has
implemented such a thing for php, but so far i haven't been able to
locate it.

Thanks for any help,
Rick

It's still a work in progress, but you should take a look at:

http://pfp-studio.sourceforge.net

There are a couple of other products out there in a similar vein but taking
different approaches to the problem. You might also take a look at:
http://www.phppeanuts.org (PHP peanuts)
http://www.bigfarm.com/ (See Jane Code)
http://www.qadram.com/qstudio.php (QStudio)
http://opensource.aventus.nu/3.php?HIST=,1, (phpGen)
http://www.xisc.com/ (prado)
