Hi I am new to PHP but I have been developing web applications for over 5 years. I have been looking on the internet for a small framework (of reusable data access methods) but could not find anything appropriate. Alls I require is a frame work or even a utility class/module that will 1) Handle connections to the database and 2) Perform CRUD functionality. I am not looking for any enterprise or over complicated frameworks as the web site is only 3 to 4 pages big. Does anyone know of any good resources for to look at to create a data access component in PHP. I have tried searching on the web but I have not found anything suitable. If anyone could provide links to articles, provide existing code or inform me of an appropriate framework It would be much appreciated. Also what is a good IDE for PHP development? Thanks in advanced
