    I am looking for a form creator that would allow me to request Mysql record output in html, do calculations between mysql fields and display these property calculations, and then input the results back into the database for yet another step (handled by another form page in the same manner , though requesting the newly "mysql fielded" data.

    without extensive use of mysql triggers and direct mass db queries and updates. I thought that a php form for calculations and re input as new fileds might be simpler. Any advice?

    The db in ? takes raw csv data and inputs it. It is a kw db with traffic, value etc. from A Google Wonder Wheel Scraper, Market Samurai, and Yahoo Explorer. I then do calculations on this data for content placement and backlinking campaign schedules.

    I used to to all of the calculations in spreadsheet formulas using the MS csv output by simply adding the other data and formulas, but it got to be too much, and now I am migrating to a mySQL DB. The raw data is in the db, and I am looking for a way to enter the calculated fields without having to copy and paste static data into the db when it should be calculated by either the db or a form. I felt form retrieval and resubmission would be the best way to go.

    Any suggestions?
