Planet CakePHP

If you work on a lot of php web applications like I do,  chances are you consider using a PHP framework at some point.  I’ve written many very complex PHP applications using only minimal OOP and by using the PHP include function for separation and code re-use.  
I decided it was time to look at some frameworks to see if they could make my programming life any easier.  Most PHP frameworks use what is called MVC (model, view, controller) for separation.  This means that interaction with databases or external data sources are managed with the model,  the core logic of your application is handled with controllers,  and the display elements of your application are handled with views.  This makes your application easier to manage, especially if you have multiple people working on it.
