You might want to look at this :
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81653
This project is a native Postgresql connection in XUL (an XML based
language that describes the Widgets in Firefox).

I have not had time to play with this but it looks like the Firefox
client could connect natively to a Postgres DB and expose it's widgets
to provide a rich DB interface, with the scripting being done in
JScript. This could in essence turn Firefox into an access like client
to a Postgres DB (at least in so far as the forms go). Seems very
promising , but it does not look like development is very active at the
moment.

Cheers
