i am searching for php program that are considered to be best in their work.
When i say best i mean may be most used and considered good by many users...running in many sites...
for eg when we say php forum people usually use vbulletien or phpbb ,when people say php mail they use squirell mail
so on

i am trying to find best program for
1)poll
i have downloaded phppoll (phpwizard.com )but it didnt work
is it the best or we have better option than it?

2)php mass mailer
may be most say it mailing list as any such good mailing list ..i am not searching class(like phpmailer) but the program.The program may be which can mail all users in database in thousand if given good mail server.

3)email system
i am using gcards but it has poor support system and normally hard to edit and lack many facilities
so which is mot used greeting system in php..
which has good support and easy to edit
may be like phpbb ( not in work but in its work and support)

so are there any such soft u know
please help
thanks
when i say best may be considered good by many like phpbb in forums...

Googled it and got this...

Google had something to say about this one as well

You said you are using gcards. This is not an email system but a greeting card system. Google helped out with this one, too.

I am not sure if the results point to best-in-class type of apps, but they can at least point you in a decent direction.

Look into hotscripts.com and you'll find many scripts that do what you are asking. Best of Luck.

i have google and i have even visited downloaded almost 9 out of 10 web i visted...but actually when i use intial php application like phpbb,phpmyadmin
i thought ok it is indeed open source and free.............
but these software which comes up in 9 searches in 10 reults are proving nothing comes for free
means they all lack some things
one uses too much space...other no some features...that gcards has it forum hacked and is not able to re establish
so i was just trying to know from experience if there any such good software from experience of any webmaster..
but just a script
these are free and lacking soft that comes in google
phpPowerCards
PHPCards
Sendcard

I am not sure if the results point to best-in-class type of apps, but they can at least point you in a decent direction.[/quote][/quote]

What you are encountering right now is why a lot of the members in this community became developers. There are a ton of applications available to you, but a lot of them miss the mark when it comes to meet your specific need. That leaves three options:

1. Keep searching until you find the app that is exactly what you want
2. Deal with what is out there and wrap your need around the app
3. Rewrite the whole darn thing and make it what you want

I like choosing #3.

you r right
but as when people like me are learning then may be its good to learn and see what other so called good programmer do..

i am totally against these people who are using free software php mysql...etc
but selling thier product..
that greeting script called emax says $179 ..thats too much
