You might want to take a look at OracleTool for some ideas, particularly if
you're working with Oracle:
=> http://www.oracletool.com/
Alternatively Thomas Eibner's idea of adapting PhpMyAdmin sounds good. You can
find out more about that here:
=> http://phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/index.html
There is a Sybase version too, here:
=> http://kenny.itlab.musc.edu/phpSybaseAdmin/
If you do write an Oracle driver and create phpOracleAdmin, can you let me
know! :-)
You can find some interesting stuff on connecting php to Oracle here:

HTH a bit 8-)
