[postgis-users] postgres data tables package (ORACLE Forms replacement?)

Brief background: We're currently using Oracle for our main database.
Nothing too big, 15 - 20 tables and the largest table has about 100K
records.   We use Oracle Forms as a web-based option for inserting and
updating records.

I am using Postgres/PostGIS for a couple of other projects.  I would like to
use Postgres for our main database as well.  However, I would need to come
up with a solution for inserting/updating the data tables within our group
(a replacement for Oracle Forms).  Preferably, a web-based solution (PHP,
Python, etc...) but it could be a Windows desktop solution installed on each
staff members machine.  Something that maintains the data integrity (e.g.,
forcing users to enter a date when Date is required, etc...)

Does anyone know of a FOSS package that can be used to manage data tables
within a Postgres database?   Updating data records is the highest priority
since the built-in Admin tool can be used for managing users, creating new
tables, etc..., and will be done only by a database manager.  Thanks for any
advice or guidance you can provide.
