Anyway, if you are comfortable with a web-based design, I would recommend PHP, since its the easiest to quickly learn and develop in,
Unfortunately, PHP doesn't have built in security checks that are important for web based apps.
I'd suggest Python with wxPython (not web based), and use Boa Constructor as your IDE. If you're at all familiar with the VB IDE, you'll love Boa.
Of if you can handle Perl and work without an IDE, gtk-perl, and Perl/Tk are pretty good too. Perl integrates *very* well with databases as well. Personally, I would not go with MySQL (referential integrity is important in this case -- I prefer full ACID compliance).
