ciaran1987 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Hi guys,I`m editing an open source PHP IT support helpdesk at the moment by adding in some extra functionalists through HTML/PHP/SQL ,I was wondering could anyone recommend any(free) GUI builders to help me with the design of the files that I create and add to the helpdesk.Would it be feasible to use a GUI builder/widget written for a different language? Thanks alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 What exactly do you mean by gui builder? Something that builds gui's? Or a gui that builds php applications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaran1987 Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 Something that builds GUI`S ,I`m not too familiar with them but I have been told that they are good because I am not used to code or building GUI,there a drag and drop type application I believe.I think that their also known as GUI widgets,I`ve tried googling and open source sites but none seem to be very reliable or are not written for PHP.

trq Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 The term gui generally isn't used for web based applications, thats whats thrown me off. HTML is HTML, there are applications like Dreamweaver and the like that claim to be WYSIWYG editors but truth be known, they write terrible code. Your probably better off getting yourself a decent text editor and a good book on CSS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 The only PHP IDE I know that has support for drag and drop GUI building is Delphi for PHP. Other than that I don't think there are any... You can try a JS framework such as ExtJS, which makes building guis easier... there's even a drag and drop editor for this one ;P http://tof2k.com/ext/formbuilder/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
