Can anyone point me to a good article about site planning before coding. I searched the net but couldn't find a good one?

Really this is far too broad to be answered here, and unless you're talking specifically about PHP web application development, it's also quite off-topic. If you're talking about diagrams and flow charts, I highly recommend Jesse James Garret's Visual Vocabulary: http://jjg.net/ia/visvocab/ If you're talking specifically about PHP application frameworks, then you'll need to a LOT of reading of the many different frameworks and methodologies out there (FuseBox, Model-View-Controller, etc), and formulate your own opinions, but the reality is I've been designing and developing web apps for over 4 years, and my own framework/methods are still in constant development. A lot of them are mentioned on phpPatterns <http://phppatterns.com/index.php/link/category/34/>, and you can learn a LOT by getting involved in (or studying the source of) a mature open source project (I'm currently spending quite a bit of time in Texpattern's code <http://www.textpattern.com>. Ask a more detailed question, and you'll get a more detailed answer. --- Justin French http://indent.com.au
