whats some good php frameworks for a beginner to use? I been writing php for awhile now, but never bothered using any frameworks or mvc controllers. You guys got any recommedations?
You can try - CakePHP - Zend Framework - Symfony Project All 3 of those are good... I'd recommend Cake to start with, or if you're looking for some fun build your own (ok, that might not be everyones idea of fun ) Happy coding!
well i use zend and most of the components in there I didn't see usably I was also checking out pear I still like designing my code from bottom to top
I will also recommend CakePHP to start with, and you can also check CodeIgniter, other very powerful php framework.. Good luck
Zend Framework is excellent and is really geared more towards enterprise. So it makes assumptions you know things about MVC and such. But if you're willing to read some tutorials I'm sure it should not be to difficult to pick up. The others are great to but with Zend being really the commercial side of PHP I feel a lote more confident in it's development and support continuing as long as PHP is around.
I think there all pretty easy to use, but I still use my own code the thing is with zend framework I only see like 20 components it has. Which are located here http://framework.zend.com/manual/components
l"ll check it out I'm just curious what is the controller part of MVC would the controller be considered the code or would that be the model or view?
Controller is what handles a lot of the logic for a specific page. It also links the model the view up. The model is really a link back to a dataset. To make things simple if you have a table admins then the model would be admin. The view is basically the template.
