    Web Ui controls for PHP?

    Hi Guys,

    Being an experienced c#.net consultant I jumped into a php project and
    apart from the obvious learning curve it's pretty disappointing to
    realize I can't find any decent UI controls library for php (compare
    that to 10+ vendors for .net). In particular I'm in a desperate need
    of an editable Grid - TreeView mix control (like
    http://demos.devexpress.com/ASPxTree...ing/Modes.aspx )
    that would support hierarchy, ajax'ed loading and be editable.

    Any ideas where I could look for such a control?

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Have you looked at
    PHP-GTK is an extension for the PHP programming language that implements language bindings for GTK+.

        That's not the way it works outside the .Net universe. Instead of a
        controls library, you would normally use a UI framework. Those are
        usually written in pure JavaScript in a server-agnostic fashion, so
        that they can be integrated with any back-end technology.

        Try one of these:

          Not necessarily. Those pages fail when javascript is disabled.

          I've written some similar stuff in the past - it wasn't that hard to do
          it all in php and html.

          I would use javascript (AJAX, actually) for the expansion, but would
          have a backup of refreshing the page in the case javascript is disabled.

              a component in UI framework;

              Unfortunately PHP itself has nothing like that. Prado is the only
              component-based php framework I know, but the OP would probably have
              to write the control by himself ;)

                Another word for a widget. A user interface element like a view, or a
                button strip or all the various other styles of controls your
                operating system provides.

                While I know very little about the .net world, I'd imagine that
                Microsoft probably provide activeX controls for internet explorer that
                let you create controls in web pages that support a visual studio-
                implemented back end. The OP is, if I read this right, complaining
                about the lack of such controls in PHP.

                  Oh. I assumed you meant desktop because of the wealth of good UI
                  libraries out there for web stuff. I hardly ever code these things
                  from scratch in php I just invoke the correct methods from one of teh
                  framework libraries.

                          Being an experienced c#.net consultant I jumped into a php project and
                          apart from the obvious learning curve it's pretty disappointing to
                          realize I can't find any decent UI controls library for php (compare
                          that to 10+ vendors for .net). In particular I'm in a desperate need
                          of an editable Grid - TreeView mix control (likehttp://demos.devexpres s.com/ASPxTreeListDem os/Editing/Modes.aspx)
                          that would support hierarchy, ajax'ed loading and be editable.
                          >
                          Any ideas where I could look for such a control?
                          >
                          Thanks a lot in advance!

                          Hi, plesase try www.extjs.com, is a javasript framework, a lot of
                          widgets (controls), you have to code the database layer, but the
                          result is similar to devexpress controls.

                          bye
