PHUI is a PHP HTA User Interface toolkit, allowing programmers to write desktop applications in PHP. It fills a similar niche to PHP-GTK, but uses HTML as the user interface rather than GTK widgets. The user interface is built out of HTML, CSS, and/or JavaScript, while the PHUI libraries are included in HTA files: HTAs are Microsoft's HTML Applications, which can access local files and registry information. Therefore the program looks to the user like a normal Windows application, but looks to the programmer like a web application. PHUI is licensed under the open source PHP license.
