Below is a list of the top 10 frameworks for PHP:
10) Mobius

What about the Zend Framework and symfony? These are great frameworks as well.
I completely do NOT agree….
You forgot some great frameworks :
* Symfony
* Prado
* Mojavi
* Zend …
Someone obviously hasnt a clue what they’re talking about. Like previous commenters have said, there are far better frameworks out there than the ones mensioned.
Symfony, Zend, Prado, Mojavi, CakePHP or my personal favorite, Code Igniter.
and why is that? Because dread’s favorite framework X isn’t listed in my article?
oh and the zend framework?
http://framework.zend.com/
It’s in a preview state and just seems like a nice collection of components rather than an actual framework. CakePHP is pretty good though.
I like Drupal content management framework. It is like complete CMS, but with very modular core. Completely function based (hooks instead of objects). I do not tried as many different frameworks as all of you. Quite impressed… Please, if someone here tried Drupal, comment on how it compares to others?
And also forget cakePHP
I agree with the previous post!!!
Up Symfony, Zend, Prado, Mojavi, CakePHP
And you’re forget aboud web.farmework - http://www.webframework.org

No, it’s not that. But you forgot the most widely used frameworks. Symfony is used in such projects as yahoo bookmarks (as I recall) and new version of del.icio.us. It is claimed by creators of those portals as one of the best frameworks. Prado and CakePHP are also quite popular and widely known. Not to mention Zend (preview, yeah, Google Mail was in beta stage for ages while becoming quite popular).
If you had forgot about one or two of those, ok. It’s acceptable. But I cannot believe that NONE of them should be placed on the list of top 10.
