What is a php framework? A php framework is a set of prebuilt libraries that allows any php developer to use and develop websites with. The main difference between CMS and Frameworks is the flexibility. Php frameworks just extends on the current php language so as to provide a quicker way for developing websites or applications. Thus these frameworks are more commonly known as Rapid Application Development. Most frameworks support normal php code as well as extended php functions or classes; and quite a number of them boasts a learning curve of 1 to 2 days (considering if you have experience with php beforehand).

Php on IIS 6.0
I was trying to enable an extension (xml-rpc) on iis6 with php, but i didnt want to restart iis. The steps is to:
- create a php file in your root folder or subfolder with a php code “phpinfo();”
- navigate to that page and search for the extension you want.
- locate the php.ini file on your server (check the phpinfo to get hints on where this is)
- now enable the extension by removing the semi colon.
- go to iis6 manager on your server
- right click on default application pool
- and select recycle.
- check your phpinfo file again and the extension should be loaded
