So, I need to construct a front-facing query builder for a database, but I'm having trouble finding existing code for what I can't imagine is a rare requirement.
Basically, I have non-SQL fluent people needing to build queries on the fly and view the results.
I found this: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/SQL_QUERY_BUILDER (Demo: http://ksistem.com/jquery/sqlbuilderdemo.htm)
But it requires that the database schema be hardcoded, rather than be dynamically generated.
Is there a better solution that dyamically pulls the database schema into a jQuery-like UI for building and executing SELECT queries against a MySQL database?
Active Query Builder ASP.NET Edition's MS Access-like user interface is based on jQuery. It's a commercial component for ASP.NET 2.0 and higher. It can build SELECT statements for MySQL server.
