May I suggest you look at Radicore at http://www.radicore.org which is most
definitely NOT a clone of any other framework If you are building
administrative web applications then this has more features than you can
shake a stick at.

For a comparison between Radicore and RoR take a look at
http://www.tonymarston.co.uk/php-mysql/radicore-vs-ror.html

It may also interest you to know that a java programmer looked at radicore's
design and was so impressed that he decided to build a clone in java. How's
that for a world's first - a java clone of a PHP framework! Read about it at
http://www.radicore.org/radicore-for-java.php
