Re: PHP - Best Appication Structure

[Tech Guru <techguru@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Richard,

In my experience choosing a framework is dependent on many factors. I would
recommend checking out a few before settling on one. With that said, the two
that I have used and would recommend are Zend Framework and Symphony.  The
Zend Framework is included in the Zend Core for i5 as I recall.  You can
check out Symphony at http://www.symfony-project.org/

Good luck.

- Jeff
