PHP Framework

Which is the best framework available today ?

CakePHP ? Symfony ?

we need to start on new project and deciding on a good framework to use..

 

Try them and decide for yourself, there is no "best" framework and they all have their own shortcomings. I liked Symfony and Zend frameworks but ended up using a thin application framework of my own.

 

I use cakephp + zend

 

I use Cake ,very good

 

Cake and Zend are my recommendations.

 

I've used Symfony and played around in Cake, I liked Symfony better.

 

Symfony is great but I know many developers ended up using a small framework of their own.

 

Yahoo! bookmarks uses Symfony

i like cakePHP because i used to work with Ruby

 

My vote goes for symfony.
Its the only php enterprise level framework available today. From my experience of various J2EE frameworks, I can say, Symfony is the only php framework which can be compared with any J2EE frameworks.

This is my opinion, others may have different views.
