cakephp vs sapphire/silverstripe framework for php

Hi i'm a newbie in php programming. Im cur开发者_开发知识库ious to know which framework is better, cakephp or sapphire? And which framework is very close to the ruby on rails style? I have searched around the web, but a definite comparison between the two is not available.

Thanks in advance :)

If you're new to PHP, you probably should get familiar with PHP before going for a framework.

CakePHP is closer to ROR in terms of usage comparable to Sapphire, however..I'll also suggest learning PHP itself prior using framework.
