Web Framework

Post by killagoat »

Hi,

I'm still learning php. I started a class that uses Ruby on Rails. I never worked with a web framework before, but I really like how fast you can develop simple applications so far. I was wondering what is a good php web framework to learn? I heard of cake php... Want to learn something that will be around for a few years and will make me more marketable. Of course there is no guarantee in the IT field.

Thanks for the advice.

+1 for CakePHP
mysql_function(): WARNING: This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQLextension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information.

Cake and Zend Framework are both popular ones that I've seen on job listings. I use codeignitor but that's because I hate how my hosts makes me connect to their server. It annoys me and half the commands are gimped. Codeignitor doesn't require command line to function and in my very preliminary results is at least acceptable.
