I’ve put up the latest installment in my “Grails for PHP developers”. Rather than delve too much more in to Grails head on, I’m taking this installment (and at least the next one) to delve more in to the Groovy language itself. Groovy offers similarities to PHP, but also many differences which can trip you up if you’re not careful. I’ll try to lay those out as best I can in the next couple of installments.
If you have a suggestion for the series – things you’d like to see covered, for example – drop me a line!

Hi, Just wondering if there’s any way to mix apps written in PHP with Grails apps. So I want to use the Grails framework to develop a Web application. There’s an app called Dolphin (http://www.boonex.com/products/dolphin/) that I would like to make use of also.
As Grails uses GSPs for the view I can’t figure how to possibly mix the two!!! Any pointers to examples or ideas would be really appreciated.
Thanks

http://grails.org/plugin/php will install quercus and allow PHP to be used inside of a Grails app. It might not work with Dolphin in particular, but it might.
