Re: [fw-mvc] Performance boost for ajax request?

Thanks Matthew, This is exactly what I was missing & looking for My app was built on ZF 1.3 and then was once upgraded to 1.7. Never really sat down to read Zend_App seriously. I thought my Bootstrap class was cool enough ^ ^ Feeling soooo out of date now  Cheers Zend_Application was created in part to solve this problem. As an example, for the revised version of the Quick Start, we're utilizing Zend_App to bootstrap a script used to create and populate the guestbook database: $application = new Zend_Application( APPLICATION_ENV, APPLICATION_PATH . '/configs/application.ini' ); $bootstrap = $application->getBootstrap(); $bootstrap->bootstrap('db'); $dbAdapter = $bootstrap->getResource('db'); As you can see, this allows you to re-use work you've already done, and selectively bootstrap and retrieve resources needed for a particular task. > Oh well, I'd better stop.
