RE: [PHP] poll of 'public framework or roll your own'

I must have missed this poll.... but let me chime in (you've prolly already stopped reading now... :P ) to make a long story short, i use a custom variant that started life as cakephp. well, not even anywhere close. I started to comprehend how cakephp started/configured itself, and then wrote my own, and reduced a lot of the "extra" stuff it did that I didn't need. So, what I use is my own custom "switchboard/index" file, that does my magic, and then utilizes: smarty templates pchart (for graphs) fpdf (for pdf generation) pear mdb2 pear mailer (or sometimes phpmailer) jquery that is about all I use for every site i develop now. I am still fine tuning my classes/functions so that everything is more manageable and stream lined. my custom "switchboard/index" uses mod-rewrites, and does prolly a lot more than it needs to do, but i find it works quite nicely. -Steve On Tue, 2010-10-12 at 15:14 -0700, Daevid Vincent wrote: > That was my poll! :) > > Do you use a public framework or roll your own? > I personally find most frameworks to be either too generic or too > restricting.
