good question !! I think the word "framework" is modern fashion term in the first case. in former days we used to say "library" C comes with a standard library, in modern words C comes with a standard framework. I use my own framework, means I reuse my code written for similar things before, so I use my "framework". its like a painter, he uses a ready made frame to paint what ever he wants,
u can use the yahoo UI framework to "paint" ur page. A operating system is a "framework" unifieing the underlaying hardware. as in former days u said "library" u say more modern "framework" in both cases its a bunch of functions doing some stuff the user of the framework hasn't to take care about by using the framework. hope that helps ralph ralph_def...@yahoo.de ""Parham Doustdar"" <parha...@gmail.com> wrote in message news:5c.b0.05105.f18be...@pb1.pair.com... Hi there, I've heard of frameworks, but I don't quite know what they are used for. I've done a little search on the internet, but even though I've been able to find different PHP frameworks, I'm not quite sure what they offer, or in what they differ, or why I shouldn't just use PHP as it is. Can someone give a little bit of explaination?
