Running "php application framework" through Google [1], I came up with
the following:
BlueShoes [2]
(The site seems slow, which I'm hoping isn't a reflection on the
framework)
"BlueShoes is a comprehensive Application Framework and Content
Management System written in PHP 4. It offers a lot of functionality
that does not come with php itself.
* Built for and with PHP 4
* Application Framework
* 140 classes, 133'217 lines of documented code
* Object-oriented code
* Well documented using PhpDoc (like JavaDoc), Manuals and HowTo's
* Stable code using an automated testing environment (PhpUnit)
* Available with opensource and commercial license"
PHPApp [3]
"The goal of the phpApp Project is to provide commercial-quality web
server solutions based on the PHP platform that are developed in an
open and cooperative fashion."
Plankton [4]
"Plankton is a Web Application Framework - an integrated collection of
classes that provide the building blocks and underlying architecture
for an entire web application - for the PHP scripting language.
Plankton consists of both a general-purpose class library, which
provides the basic building blocks of a PHP web application, and
framework-specific classes, which provide a streamlined architecture
for PHP web development. "
