This week, I’ve been prepping for a talk on Quercus in which I promised to show a demo of Spring MVC using a PHP view.  So that means that I actually had to do it.   Turns out it was quite easy and PHP makes for a very nice, compact view technology for Spring MVC.  This is a bit of tease since the code for this won’t go out until at least next week, but since a number of people have been asking for this a while, I thought I’d give a preview…

First, let me show how it looks by using the sample “ImageDB” application that ships with Spring.  Here’s a screenshot of the app in action:

Basically, you upload an image to the page and it keeps track of what you’ve uploaded in a database.  Here are the JSP and PHP views side-by-side:

"1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"> "imageUpload" method="post" encType="multipart/form-data">  

"clearDatabase">Clear database

"clearDatabase">Clear database

"false" %> "java.util.List,                  java.util.Iterator,                  org.springframework.samples.imagedb.ImageDescriptor" %>   List images = (List) request.getAttribute("images"); for (Iterator it = images.iterator(); it.hasNext();) { ImageDescriptor image = (ImageDescriptor) it.next(); %> "1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
"10%">Name	() %>
"2">"imageContent?name=" height="100">
Description (() %>)	() %>
"10%">Name	"text" name="name">
Content	"file" name="image">
Description	"description" cols=<span class="st0">"80"</span> rows=<span class="st0">"5"</span>>
"2">"submit" value="Upload image">
	foreach ($images as $image) { ?> "1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
"10%">Name	= $image->getName() ?>
"2">"imageContent?name== $image->getName() ?>" height="100">
Description (= $image->getDescriptionLength() ?>)	= $image->getShortDescription() ?>
"10%">Name	"text" name="name">
Content	"file" name="image">
Description	"description" cols=<span class="st0">"80"</span> rows=<span class="st0">"5"</span>>
"2">"submit" value="Upload image">
