I want to build an application with a plugin system like drupal, joomla or magento where you simply upload your plugin to a plugin folder removing the need to update any of the core files.

I'm not after help in building the system but a brief outline of the principles of how it works before I delve into the source for drupal to get a getter understanding of how it works or, ideally a tutorial on this topic.

I like the idea that to add a module to a site you simple upload the plugin to a foldder and run an install script without having to alter the core code and would like to use this in my site.
