Question

I have to models that are practically the same, just diferent table in db and a new field,
So is there a way in zend framework so I can inhert from the first class? and just change these two things?

The same for the controlles and view.

Answer 1

You can extends those classes like any other php class by using the “extend” call.

class Application_Model_Foo extends Application_Model_Bar

the same goes for controllers, but not views, as those are not classes, just php files, but You could use render method inside one view to render another view.
