Is there any PHP web framework that works cleanly with the Firebird database?

By "cleanly", I mean out-of-the-box, no hacks/customization/self-made drivers.

So far, I've checked out frameworks like CodeIgniter & CakePHP, but their support for Firebird is vague or little at most.

The Zend Framework has a Firebird / Interbase DB adapter in incubation, so almost clean out of the box (and I've used it, and it worked like a charm for me). Mind you, there's an experimental PDO adapter for Firebird as well, and with that in place, any framework that use PDO is going to support it.

Seems you haven't checked out THE PHP framework! ;)

Zend Framework seems to support an adapter for Firebird (php_interbase).

Zend Framework is working on Firebird-Interbase support. You can check out the progress here.

cake php supports it out of the box, http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2008/08/cakephp-tutorial-for-ubuntu-firebird.html

+1  A: 

Zend Framework has support for Firebird and Interbase in the "Extras", you must download the "Full Package" instead of "Minimum Package".

I developed this Adapter, if you need some help, please subscribe and post in [email protected].

Instead of finding a framework that supports FireBird why not use a framework you are familiar with and use ADOBD lib for accessing a plethora of RBDMSs out of the box.
