Hi all,

In your opinion: what is current status of frameworks for PHP and which
one would you choose?

I am looking for an all-purpose, MVC-based framework I could learn and
use for all the applications I'll be working on in the future.
Something that is currently stable and documented enough to be used in a
commercial world (but it doesn't have to drive space shuttles yet;-)),
and has no limitations whatsoever on the view (presentation) side.
Templates support would be nice I think, although I've been never using
"real" templates with links to functions.

I was looking at Zend, CakePHP, Symfony and Seagull. Do you think any of
them (Zend?) has a chance to become a standard for PHP?

Thanks,

-marek

i've used CakePHP. it has very poor documentation. although you can be
assured that you can use it for small upto large projects. and its file
structures are well organized. like RoR and Symfony, it has its version
of compiling scripts through the use of "bake"

symfony is too big already. too many features that youre not gonna need
anyway. its well documented though.

check out these links for more MVC:
