i developed my own system. it isn't too difficult.
1. you have a main logic page.
2. the logic page includes a template page or redirects to itself on
form submission.

3. i have a common.in.php file where i store constants and the like.
4. i link to a style sheet.
in order to help out, i use Manuel Lemos' forms generation and
validation class (phpclasses.org). the class is awsome. it isn't
simple to learn, but nothing powerful is.
i also use the adodb abstraction layer to do my db work. i'm quite
happy there, too.
only your imagination can limit your css (presentation).
i highly recommend visiting sitepoint.com's css forum - paul is a css
guru. if you try and make cross browser compatibility a reality, css
guru's are your friend. your best friend.

i use postgresql - great db with a license much better than mysql.
if you *really* want to go with a framework, you may want to look into
ruby on rails. lots of java and php developers are saying it is a
great way to develop.
of course, you lose some capability for the simplicity, but that can
often be made up by adding the complexity back in, where appropriate.
good luck.
