Excuse my redundancy if it has. > Many PHP developers use the MVC pattern (sometimes loosely) when developing applications. I find it very useful in my larger applications. For small things, my view and controller tend to be the same piece of code. As for other patterns, many PEAR libraries implement other ones and I use them from within my apps constantly. IMHO, many of the other design patterns (drivers, decorators, renderers, factories, etc) are library-level. They work very well for a specific piece of code which fits into MVC in one of its areas. -- DB_DataObject_FormBuilder - The database at your fingertips http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder paperCrane --Justin Patrin--
