Table Editor ComparisonEverybody loves a good table editor. Right? Well perhaps not, but they do however save you an ass load of time when it comes to providing GUIs for "punters". Personally, when I was looking round for a decent one, I couldn't find one that did everything I wanted so I ended up doing the usual thing, and wrote it myself. Not everyone wants to do that though, so since I'm such a nice guy, here's a comparison of the feature sets of a few common ones. Hopefully unbiased, but lets face it, mines the best. :-) Bear in mind that it's not an exhaustive list, but most of the major features are listed. Any omissions or errors, let me know. Feature Comparison
Link to meIf you use any of the code on this site (and if you don't I guess) or it makes your life easier, I'd appreciate a link - http://www.phpguru.org. Thanks.

QuoteMe too, but wouldn't give it to users, which is the main use of this version. Great work. Look forward to being able to add a CSV file upload feature ;-)

Just one file to move or copy around and very easy to keep up to date. Only having one file was very much intentional.

Elantrix, you are totaly outside. I have used all of this "tools" to creating backend administration for sites ,witch I can provide for my users(customers) latter. I have also working with PhpMyAdmin, but this is for webmasters (Creating Database, Export, Import, even Drop...) so this have nothing in comune with the products presented above. Nice article !
