Hi, I am a great fan of Zend framework and somehow i have modified it in my own way. I have been using it from around a year but still i lack knowledge of some internal workings. So i decided to design my own framework to understand inner things.
I just want from you guys to provide resources about it, articles, tutorial or any book.
I want it to be like Zend framework and initially just MVC structure only.

Hi Imran, one way that I have found to be very helpful in understanding the inner workings of something like Zend Framework is to use a debugger and step through the code. You can follow it is as it does each thing and really get a good feel for where it goes, what it uses and how it works.

I use the Netbeans IDE and if you have xdebug installed and configured properly you can set some breakpoints, hit debug and follow any aspect of the code as deeply or shallowly as you like. Very, very useful.

Here is a link to doing this.

Might want to give Netbeans a try anyway. It is free and open source and the debugging is much more powerful than firephp. You might be surprised at how useful it is.
