php iphone framework?

Is there any PHP framework that will let you code for the iPhone?开发者_运维百科 Like C# (mono touch)

Thank you.

I think what you really want, and don't know it yet, is to use a development platform like Appcellerator's Titanium which allows you to use HTML, CSS, Javascript, Ruby and Python to develop native looking apps.

However, to answer your question directly, PHP is not available in any of these types of passthru app development tools as a language to develop iOS apps on.

Best of luck!

There's no way to develop natively for the iPhone with PHP - the platforms are incredibly different. You can, however, still develop iOS-optimized web applications and deploy them as "apps" that have the native look-and-feel with iOS Web Apps.

I doubt it. PHP is primarily a web programming language, used to code for web pages. PHP code are usually in text files with a .php extension and are executed by web servers that have access to a PHP interpreter. You can also run PHP code from the command line or compile it into executable code to be distributed, but this is very rarely done. Most compiled programs are written in Java or C++ or C.

iPhone native apps are written in Objective-C and have to be compiled and then uploaded to a device like the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. However, you can also create web applications to run on the Safari browser on IOS devices. In the case, you can use PHP but it won't be a native app.
