Advice on webbased database reporting

I need to make certain views from the database visible online (on our
webpage) and I wonder if there is any reasonably quick solution for this
that works with Postgres?

At best, a query should be specified and the user should be able to select
the layout on certain columns (like stepped, or outlined).

I don't mind running a whole CMS on our Apache server as long as it allows
me to make reports and is free to use.

Has anyone any suggestions?

Kind regards,
Davor

PHP works great with Postgres and Apache.

have you seen RLIB? It's a nice XML based reporting tool
that can use PostgreSQL. The output can be PDF, HTML, etc.

You should get the CVS version from sourceforge,
it has quite some fixes since the last public release.

Best regards,
