Re: anyone can help?

There are many ways to go about this- here are a couple:

Our company uses Postgresql,JDBC and Tomcat to accomplish this sort of task.
It's an industrial-strength approach that scales up and maintains well, but
involves a lot of learning for a simple application. I'd recommend it if it
seems like the boss will want to expand the web offering.

For a quicker approach, PHP might be a pretty good solution for a simple
application. I've not used PHP much, but it appears to be more suited to
rapid development and I think you'll find good support for it in the
Postgresql community. We only chose not to use it because we didn't think it
would scale up well. (But I'm sure that making this assertion will elicit
many opinions to the contrary.)

What platform does it need to run on?
