writing my own php roster

01100100On our company Intranet, we have a list of employees with various bits of information (name, contact info, etc). The problem with it is that I had to do all the updates, since it was all flat file and we didn't really have anyone else to manage the HTML. Once we got someone else to help out, it was easier... but still a pain to update flat files.

I'm pushing for another option (which I won't talk about yet, but is known to a couple of people on the outside), but until that happens, we needed something a little easier to update. Since we have an application server, I went with PHP/MySQL to get it done. There may be (and are) other options, but I've done some PHP before, and used something like this a few years ago (code reuse is nice).

Now that it's available to us internally, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a system to manage something like this. When we move to the next iteration of our Intranet, we might keep this going if it works well enough.
