title: where to start developing iphone / mobile applications in php?
body: <p>I'd like to develop an iphone application using my knowledge of PHP.  I know of some frame works like appcelerator that maybe able to help (have problems installing appcelerator though).  My question is, what framework do you recommend?</p>
  
  <p>Also, I've noticed some apps appear to simply open a safari browser and run, what "type" of application is that?  Do those apps have the ability to use native phone operations such as take pictures, geo-locations etc?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
