File once again from Andreia Bohner’s /webdev blog.

My last post may have hinted to this finding, but I quickly retrieved the Symfony HTML Form Helper Cheat Sheet I was looking for and printed it ASAP.

This was also found at Andréia Bohner‘s blog “/webdev“. Hope that helps someone out there.

A Symfony Cheat Sheet for JavaScript and AJAX Helpers

dtportnoy69 — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 03:30:20 +0000

I finished installing Symfony a while ago and finally found some time to start learning and testing this baby out. I get some comfort from its strong structure and adventurous conventions (yes, I feel that learning new conventions is an adventure!) and knowing that I can develop rapidly soon enough.

To cut to the chase, I got an example in the documentation that had form Helpers. Of course it only showcased one or two helper methods, so I quickly started googling (the process of searching with google) for Symfony HTML form helpers. I didn’t find what I needed ‘off the bat’, but I did find this neat Symfony Javascript and AJAX Helper cheat sheet that I may find invaluable at a later time.

The cheat sheet was found on this cool webdev blog. Although the blog is written in spanish you can browse through and find other hints of cheat sheets, most translated to English. I will eventually post them up here in the Symfony – Cheat Sheet category of my blog. Enjoy.

My Symfony Blog (an Introduction)

This blog is here to help me document while I learn to use the PHP framework called Symfony. I think this is a great way to reinforce the information that I’m absorbing and at the same time I’m hoping it may help out a few people who are also getting to know the same framework.

While the focus of my blog will be on the Symfony framework, I may also post other cool information that is relevant to the Symfony development environment and that I find noteworthy.

While I fill in this post I’m envisioning myself a year from now writing my 100th entry as a much wiser developer. As many, I’m a developer with an endless strive to better myself and hopefully this blog will help me reach my goals while helping a bunch of people at the same time.

So enough with the fluff; less talk more tech stuff !
