Another idea for using models with forms
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009Matthew Weier O'Phinney wrote about using Zend_Form with models. His approach puts a form inside a model, which then uses the form to validate itself.

The problems faced by a common model interface in frameworks

Since ...
Django = Awesome
Friday, May 16th, 2008So in the lack of anything "useful" to post, and in the attemps to at least post something interesting, I shall dedicate this post to talking about what makes Django such an awesome framework! I'm going to compare it to Zend Framework, as it's the framework I'm most familiar with.
