can anyone give me idea of PHP framework?

88 New Member
hi

as now i am doing my PHP project of renting a car, something very similar to Avis rent a car. the requirement is that i have to use AJAX and PHP framework. but i really do not have much idea of PHP framework. as from my friends i know there is cakePHP and sympony framework. but when google it, there are really plenty of it. so i really have no idea. can anyone help me with this. what i am afraid is that if i choose a wrong one, my PHP application will end up very difficult to do or carry out!

i would like to hearing from you as soon as possible, it is a bit urgent as i still have to learn from scratch and finish it before deadline.

thanks in advance!! :)

yours

no matter what framework you use, there is going to be a learning curve. what you really should be asking yourself rather is, how much PHP do I know, and which option best suits my needs / knowledge base. you can also check out Smarty and Sourdough... the other thing, is if it is for a class, are you sure that you are supposed to be using a pre-built framework? or are you supposed to be writing your own code?

You shouldn't give yourself deadlines for things you are clueless about. That's asking for disaster.

You never *need* a framework. Ever. Frameworks are meant to make things neater and/or easier and speed up the development process. Of course, it can only make it faster if you have a good insight into the workings of a framework, which isn't easy when using someone else's. You'll really need to read some documentation and commentary to get a good grasp of what you're up against.

Hi kang jia

I must agree that a framework is/should be optional. Having said that, I have just fallen hopelessly in love with CodeIgniter.
It's easy to setup and takes about half a day to read the documentation and get an idea of the basics. It is also highly customizable if you know what you're doing.

If you're new to PHP i will strongly recommend you to NOT using a framework, since you have a lot of basics to learn.

If frameworks really are a must you might also want to check out jQuery for your AJAX needs.

Hi, If you are familiar with object oriented programming and want to use Ajax extensively but without much Javascript coding you might want to take look at Tigermouse framework. If not, you'd better stay away from it (and why the heck did you pick this task?!)

Hi all, Here's an idea for a framework I thought about because I can make use of it in my project. Maybe such a thing exists, if so, I'd like pointers; if not, I'll start working on it myself. The project is for Java, so ... I want something that would make it easier for various modules to be able to instrument themselves so they can

I am using VS.NET 2008 and like it a lot. One of the very few things I don't like is a bug that seems to spawn literally thousands of   strings, one after the other, on design view changes. Sometimes I will end up with as many as 30,000 of them. I have to do a "Replace" which is slower than I'd like. This is slowing down my work a lot. This might be related to a commercial control I'm using, or it may just be VS.NET's indentation getting...
