    PHP MVC framework worth looking into ?



    I recently started working at a company and it sounds like I am
    slated for a new web 2.0 project that will begin in a few weeks in
    PHP. I have done alot of C++, Perl, and Java as well as Ruby On Rails,
    which I think Rails is probably what I'd prefer to work in but it
    doesn't seem to have caught on enough so that many companies still
    prefer PHP and it's not really up to me what to do it in. Anyway, I
    saw on the PHP Wiki and in a number of posts that the MVC stuff out
    there for PHP looks like CakePHP, PRADO and Symfony. I guess Zend has
    something as well ? I was at the book store and saw a book on Symfony
    and am tempted to just go down and buy it so I have something to
    study. I suspect using a framework would make it easier, especially if
    I have some lead time to study it. Any comments on that ? The two
    books I currently have is PHP 5 Power Programming and I just bought
    PHP in a nutshell. I saw that that you can create Flash stuff in PHP,
    which I was never aware of that. I may also get the PHP cookbook as I
    have found that this style of book has been usefull to me. Any other
    book recomendations or thoughts on PHP MVC stuff would be appreciated.

      From what I understand, those are on the heavier side. For something
      lighter, check out Code Igniter

          Not bad,

          I took a look at it, downloaded it and studied the documentation a
          little. I doesn't look like it does any ajax stuff, but appears
          lightweight as you mention. I found this, a big list:
          Comparison of server-side web frameworks - Wikipedia
          http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_web_application_frameworks#PHP


          It appears for ajax there is CakePHP and Symfony which seem to have
          the best name recognition as well as ajax from my surfing the web
          today.

              There's another MVC framework called Kumbiaforms, which is like cake
              but not that big... but is still useful... it was developed by the
              colombian comunity, but is mantained by many persons, so i guess it
              will be usefull...

              i've been using it for a couple weeks and well it helps... :p,
              kumbia.sf.net

                  I haven't looked at that part yet, but I read there are Ajax add-ons.
                  Browse their site, including the forums and wiki for more information.
