When a Web framework isn't convenient to use?
The rule that I have is that if whatever I'm building is only going to be a single page, I'll usually do it in just PHP. Whenever I need more than one page, I go with a framework (Symfony), because that usually means that I'm going to want things like routing and proper dispatching of requests.
This does however depend a lot on the language. In languages like PHP, the time needed to set up a project to use an MVC framework may be a lot more than just solving the problem. Other languages may very well be designed around using an MVC framework, and has a very low setup cost for that.
When a Web framework ( like django, ruby on rails, zend, etc ) isn't convenient to use ?
And so... When a Web programming language ( like PHP, Asp, Python, etc ) is better than a Web Framework ?
