PHP Framework

[Game Makker]

This is really just to make others aware of a php framework called Cake PHP (http://www.cakephp.org/).

I havn't used it myself but I would love to ehar from others who have. I have read that it is based on the popular Ruby web framework, Rails.

If you have experiance with Cake PHP or are planning to I would like to hear more about it. I was intrested in Ruby on Rails but then (unfortunately after purchasing 2 books) I discovered that converting the finished app from a windows computer to a linux server is almost impossible - thus my delight to hear about this new php based one.

I am just about to start development on two big projects and was planning to use www.codeigniter.com as a framework for them. Now I think I will have to reconsider! It's late right now but tomorrow I will look into Cake even further and make my decision...

good luck on the projects then

Try MODx, http://modxcms.com it has very nice "event" over ride system for plugins, modules and snippets capability, and is very very flexible when it comes to implement CSS based design.

Good luck.

I also found Cake PHP a while ago and it seems like quite a solid framework and it's a great plus that it supports php 4 which many other frameworks doesn't. However - if one are going to be using it it need to be used on almost every site becuase of it's somehow weird interface using mod_rewrite to call specific functions at the site. Well - perhaps some likes it - I like Cake PHP for every reason I have seen yet except that.
