On the Inside DealTaker blog, a recent post starts a series looking at the Kohana PHP framework (a fork of the CodeIgniter framework) and introducing you to some of the first steps of its use.

So after reading my article about frameworks, you might want to try one out. Today we are going start a series of tutorials on how to use the Kohana PHP framework beginning with how to install it and creating a controller.

They walk through the installation (complete with some environmental testing), the creation of a .htaccess file for routing and the creation of a simple controller (Hello_Controller).
