+<h1>PRADO Framework for PHP 5 </h1>
+<p>Version 3.0a, January 18, 2006<br>
+Copyright&copy; 2004-2006 by <a href="http://www.pradosoft.com/">PradoSoft</a><br>

+
+<p>PRADO is a component-based and event-driven framework for Web application
+ development in PHP 5. </p>
+<p>Components following the PRADO protocol are highly configurable and reusable.
+ Properties defining the basic features of a component can be configured in specifications,
+ templates or code. New components can be developed by either inheriting an existing
+ component class or composing several components together. The work of using
+ a component amounts to placing the component tag on the page template, configuring
+ component properties, and writing handler functions to respond to component
+ events.</p>
+<p>PRADO shares many similarities with ASP.NET and other RAD tools for Windows
+ GUI development, such as Borland Delphi. In particular, it supports event-driven
+ programming, viewstate maintenance, javascript, template, form validations, theme/skin,
+ etc.</p>
+<h2>Requirements</h2>
+<p>The sole requirement for PRADO is PHP 5.0.4 or higher. It has been tested
+with Apache 2.0 on both Windows XP and RedHat Linux.</p>
+<h2>Installation</h2>
+<ul>
+ <li> Unpack the distribution file using &quot;unzip&quot; command on Linux or
+ &quot;winzip&quot; program on Windows.</li>
+ <li> Copy all the files and directories under the unpacked &quot;prado&quot;
+ directory to the DocumentRoot of the Web server (or a subdirectory of that).</li>
+ <li> Browse the URL, http://&lt;Web-server-address&gt;/requirements/index.php, to see
+ if your Web server configuration satisfies the requirement for using PRADO.</li>
+ <li> The directory &quot;framework&quot; contains the core code of PRADO.</li>
+ <li>The directory &quot;docs/manual&quot; contains the PRADO API documentation
+ in HTML format.</li>
+</ul>
