For all frameworks i recommend to use free PHP IDE Codelobster PHP Edition with special plug-ins for installation, autocomplete, context help and etc.

hi ,
I believe cake php ,symfony and zend are the best framework.But All it depends upon the kind of application you are going to develop and the time span.

I used codeigniter and at the last 3-4 months I am using Yiiframework.com
Yii is very good framework and codeigniter I thing has some minus as the form validation (see Yii form validation),they also do not have a authentication system as cakephp,Yii and zend have.
The next framework I wll learn is symfony.

@Hoang Tan: hi Hoang,
Thanks for your reply, but u are wrong sir. I have worked in codeignitor for many projects and i used to say the same thing as u thought. Later i came across kohana, CakePHP, Symfony… in PHP language. I always prefer CakePHP for works. and when guys who like to develop using codeignitor can easily handle kohana which uses PHP5.
You have said about CI’s community. I dont think there are many brilliant guys there, if so why no one interested in understanding the version changes of PHP? Why they still follows the old version? If so i cant find any good updates on CI when compared to other frameworks available.
We should adopt new things and changes in Web development, then only there will be growth. I wont prefer any one to use Codeignitor.
And about fast. I dont think thats a good point.

Thanks

@Amjith PS: you’re wrong. CI is simple,easy to use,it’s running with both php4 & php5 and faster than Kahana. Kohana only supports php5. CI’s community is one of greatest communities i’ve seen, they’re very very friendly.

I know someone mentioned Qcodo earlier, but I would like to extend that to the community branch – QCubed http://qcu.be

I also like Zend and would not even mention these if it wasn’t for the code generation and clean object oriented PHP they provide.

Feel free to check out my own comparison here: http://www.piranhamethod.com/2009/05/25/php-framework-comparison

hey,
I wonder why u choose CodeIgnitor? .. its a simple framework, but dont have good updates and can only be used with php4.
There is better and more advanced framework which replaces codeignitor, and its Kohana
Please do check this http://kohanaphp.com
