Background: We have a database that's used by our customers to monitor stuff, and by our employees to track stuff (goods in/out, that kind of thing).
At the moment they pretty much manipulate the database directly, but that is definitely not satisfactory (I've inherited this from someone else).
I've finally realised that it's time to bite the bullet and write a front end for it. The front end needs to be web-based, and I want some flashy stuff like drag and drop capability.
Problem: I'm an embedded programmer. I know some assembler and C. I know VB6 fairly well and VB.net a bit. I have no experience of web development, and no real knowledge of the current state of the art. I can handle the back end stuff - it's just firing off XML to the database API, but I have no idea what (or how) to code the front end stuff in.
Over to you guys
