Looking for a wiki/ajax/php... thing...

In My Humble Opinion
1

Ok,

I am going to have a lot of trouble describing what I want, so bear with me. I am looking for some sort of a PHP file/data … management? … solution with an AJAX UI that has as many of the following features as possible. Note, that this is for my use and going to be password protected, i.e. this is probably going to be a developer-oriented tool, i.e. not for public websites:

a) Ability to easily install and embed it into a php page.
b) Interface to upload/browse/manage files
c) Interface to edit files (PHP/HTML/Javascript syntax highlighting a plus)
d) Interface to edit files in place, i.e. I would envision the solution would let me create special pages that can edit themselves using AJAX.
e) Ability to “finalize” a page so that the self-editing code is stripped out and the page can be made public.
f) Anything else fun.

I guess what I want is a developer’s version of BackpackIt! (http://www.backpackit.com/ ) that I can run on my own server and that would let me edit PHP, JavaScript and HTML of any of “my pages” and do other useful stuff.

Does something like that exist as a complete product? Can I piece it together out of something like TiddlyWiki and… something?

Sorry for the incoherence,

Regards,

Groman

Bump.

Any ideas/pointers? Anything even remotely close? Should I post this to GQ?

maybe I’m not sure exactly what you’re looking for, but take a look at Net2FTP. It has a lot of what you want, but it seems rather unlike Backpack.

I guess what I want is to have my own password protected set of pages on my website (that I already have) that are self-editable kind of like backpackit. I want to use it for personal organization and stuff, kind of like Outlook meets notepad but web-based and done my own way. I just don’t want to write this completely from scratch and spend time debugging the AJAX code/text editing, file uploads, and stuff like that.
