I'm working on a project where I would like to some information in a
table (database entries) but I would like to have some of the commonly
associated functionality like being able to sort by column, etc..

It seems ridiculous to re-invent all of this functionality. I know
there are Java Scripts out there that will turn an HTML textbox into a
WYSIWYG editor, etc.. Does anyone make a class of for lack of a
better term "Widgets" for use on the web. Similar to wxWindows for
GUI programming for example?

It seems that there should be a class that you can simply feed a PHP
array and will produce a nicely formated output with the expected
results. Maybe this is asking too much but even better if it
integrated some AJAX to provide smoother functionality.

Thanks,

Steven Potter
