Help : Implementaion- Form to database

[Chitharanjan Das <cd...@accordiasys.com>]

Hello All,
            Has anyone come up with a standard approach where one can
specify an Form to the user and the form data has to be inserted or
updated into database.
 
For eg:
            A XML which represents the underlying table structure (or a
database view) . 
The XML data has to be presented to the browser as a form.
The form data has to be validated and inserted / updated to a table.
 
Are there any approaches (open source ) to achieve the above ?
 
Please do respond ASAP.
 
Regds,
Chiths

Take a look at this:
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/xmlform/index.html

If you write the code to map database queries to DOM documents (which isn't much grief if you use Xindice), then XMLForm can take care of the rest.

Cheers,

Ivelin
