In the end I gave up and followed the advice of a fellow Drupal developer and created an offline copy of the Drupal docs using Httrack: http://www.httrack.com/.

Please remember to only use this occasionally as you are effectively hammering Drupal’s servers.

Although Symfony seemed really promising at first I found myself constantly fighting against quirks here and there that slowed down development. I’m not saying its not a good PHP MVC framework to build your next web project with. It just wasn’t suitable for something I needed up and running quickely.

So on to Drupal… I’ll blog as I go along. One thing I can say it the amazing documentation thats maintained by the Drupal user community. Its very complete and detailed making my life an awful lot easier :)
