Hi all

In short I'm looking for a perl module/framework(?) I can leverage to assist me in building potential queries, to a given database.

Basically I just designed and populated a db, with the requirements being the users want to be able to query with about any combination of criteria.

Done..at the db level. So they'll have a web form were they can do all kinds of and | or on criteria, over given date range | time range. There's only about 6 pieces of information, and then there will be all the possible date/time combinations for it.

I'd like to avoid as much as the tedium of if they clicked this and this then do join on this, but if they click then it's select this that etc.

I feel my database design is pretty good and well normalized. I'm hoping there's something that can ease the rest. Something that would give me a skeleton web form would be nice too :)

Something for perl but ruby on rails ish?????
Thank you!
