It’s been a long time since 2003 when we created the first release of P4A (formerly named MerlinWork), we passed from PHP4 to PHP5, from PEAR to Zend Framework, from PEAR::DB to MDB2 to ADODB to Zend_DB, we got jQuery under our hood and with P4A 3.2 we gained a great great great stability and powerfulness.

P4A 3.4 is not an extremely giant leap, our base engines were updated (Zend Framework, jQuery, jQuery UI), we have a few new widgets (P4A_Progress_Bar and P4A_Dir_Navigator) and we got a lot a bugs fixed continuing to gain stability.

On the enterprise side we have a better Oracle support (most of all using LOBs).

On the rendering side we migrated a lot of code to jQuery UI and jQuery CSS framework, so we can relay on a stable cross browser CSS/widget framework and avoid a lot of troubles with the browser rendering.

Updating is suggested to everyone!
Enjoy our new beloved web application framework release!
