They are about CakePHP and this is the CakePHP group.
This mailing list is for developers of CakePHP.
The About Group page says it is for users and develpers of CakePHP. It is the only Google Group on CakePHP, so it seems to be for CakePHP in general. In any case, I have been developing applications in PHP for 5 years and just started using CakePHP, so I would think that the CakePHP group would be the place to look.
and, unfortunately, assumes some level of knowledge of the PHP programming language.
I've use PHP to write about 10 different applications. Most of them extracted data from other sites and created a database of that data with routines to display it and let the user peruse it. Some of them are fairly sophisticated. I developed an expression that defines the format of a page, giving directions for my parser program to walk through a site given a little knowledge from a user.
Your questions are so basic and the answers so fundamental to programming in PHP that if you've done any work in PHP building a web-based, database-driven application that you will already know those answers.
No, CakePHP has its own concepts beyond PHP, and also uses PHP constructs that a programmer doesn't necessarily use himself.
Google is your friend for finding PHP tutorials, and I highly recommend any sort of "PHP for beginners" book you can get your hands on.
My questions aren't asking about PHP programming. They are specifically asking what it is that CakePHP provides in terms of chores (input) required of the programmer and the specific facilities provided by CakePHP. Can anyone answer these questions abou CakePHP? Thanks, Peter
