What could be the best framework for building large scale applications ?
i simply dont know when i see all these commentsgood points: lightness, database queries yes they are the 50% efficiency factor it's true; size of the framework, cakephp is so easy to learn at first but when i see websites build on cake, WO, that's not what I'd want for delivery to a client =]for instance, i have friends in the office boasting about the frameworks they will be using in the future and not even considering the detrimental...
This is where I think I'll stop with Zend Framework
It's true about what ppl are saying about Zend.. Although it created PHP, it's not being brilliant in creating a framework, which i understand, cos we cant be good at everything.. can you imagine symfony creating php??? AAAHH, or microsoft??So I got stuck in this part of the tutorial from the Zend official website itself and apparently from what i see, the Zend framework doesnt have much and I guess it wont even post the comments...

Search Results for "Zend Framework + Enable Layout"

Optimize Windows Vista for better performance
No matter how fast or shiny computers might be when they are new, they all seem to get slower over time. That state-of-the-art PC you bought last year might not feel like such a screamer after you install a dozen programs, load it with antispyware and antivirus tools, and download untold amounts of junk from the Internet. The slowdown might happen so gradually you hardly notice it, until one day you’re trying to open a program...

PROS AND CONS OF Flash
Some very important things to note while building a website in flash (or not) with flash splash screens and flash intros..Nowadays I think, I agree with those who advise it too, that flash intros should be sort of banned. A good thing would be to have it included in top menu and top headers, which internally contains a top menu and a search bar with autocomplete fields for instance.But on a sideline, there are many other ways...

This is a FUCKING myth in Mauritius
So once upon a time there was this type of book that was presented to under-fucking-developed countries like ours to make us understand that to gain the boss' confidence and the best seats in the office, well you must be what we say in french, a lêche-bobotte..There is no other way other than abide by the boss' rules.

The difference between a developer and a programmer
This is a one rare article I found it pleasing to read: the light english and the unbelievable truth about the difference between a programmer and a software developer.
