Re: PHP and big production database apps ?

For a commercial PHP library for building applications, have a look at phpLens at http://phplens.com/ This was developed by our company, and we have used it develop some pretty big applications (100 company extranet for example). There are other libraries available, some free. I like to search hotscripts.com myself.
