Another one is 'Whitebeam' - which it primarily targeted at developing
web-applications using server-side JavaScript, XML and PostgreSQL. It runs as an
Apache module (like PHP).

The Whitebeam interface to PostgreSQL allows you to do just about anything you
could do in libpq and in a slightly more object orientated way than the raw PHP
interface (although for PHP there are a number of wrappers).

Whitebeam at http://www.whitebeam.org

The Postgres interface is documented at:
