Unfortunately, there is not an easy way to do this short of installing a web server on the local machine to host the php scripts. However, wxPython is a very viable interface to use for this type of interaction, and python has a reasonable mySQL interface. There is a good interface builder for wxWidgets, including wxPython, called wxGlade, that will do the messy stuff of layout, etc. for you, so all that you do is write the logic behind the GUI. wxGlade is available at http://wxglade.sourceforge.net .
