Just curious about that first sentence there... are you saying that Symfony and Yii are both in the same league, different from everything else, or that Symfony is in a league different from the one that Yii is in?

I haven't looked at Symfony, but I was really impressed by the event driven nature of Yii, and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face when I started looking into the active page elements.

I think 2.0 is as good an excuse as any to check out Symfony though, so goodbye to the weekend :)

I was meaning "Symfony is in a league different from the one that Yii is in"

I value Symfony so much because you can create all model classes, crud forms etc from command line (as much as you want as you update your schema) just based on specifications from a easy to manage yml file. Also with ORM behaviors, you are in control of everything about your model.

In that case I wonder what makes you compare the two frameworks and what you actually think the two are in such a separate league. You keep talking about Symfony without actually comparing it with Yii as your initial statement made me think you would. :)
Sorry about misleading, when I talk about symfony and tell about its features, I tried to pick superior parts where Yii lacks
