Yes, I ran into this problem too when I downloaded it and looked. Same thing with cakephp too. There's a php5 based framework at http://kohanaphp.com/ that says it is based off CI. I started looking at it but all the FW classes are top level with no namespace prefix which made me really sad. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
