CakePHP is what I'd recommend you. Besides being a part-time jQuery
evangelist I truly belong to the church of CakePHP as well. Other then
the Zend framework it is not only a loose collection of useful code, it
is actually a very elegant organizational structure to put your code in.
It was originally inspired by Ruby on Rails and has many of it's
features (ActiveRecord Models, Controllers, Views, Helpers,etc.) but has
taken it's own path and introduced a lot of own features.
It has an an excellent Manual <http://manual.cakephp.org/>, a great
community <http://groups-beta.google.com/group/cake-php>, quick support
via IRC <http://irc.cakephp.org/> (all of the core devs hang out there),
people actively blogging about it (CakeBaker
<http://cakebaker.42dh.com/>, Jonathan Snook
<http://snook.ca/archives/cakephp/>, Me <http://www.thinkingphp.org/>,
and some others <http://www.cakephp.org>) and a dedicated Bakery
<http://bakery.cakephp.org/>. With the latest release
<http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/174> it also just recieved a
significant performance boost.
Code igniter is nice, but I don't think it's educational effect is as
big as CakePHP's. It let's you get away with a low skill level / bad
practices more easily (afaik). Symfonie is pretty nice and stable,
however I really don't like how you have to configure *everything* in
thousands of YAML files. CakePHP takes an approach of conventions over
configuration, leaving all freedom you need, but not annoying you with
details when not required. The only thing you have to setup to get it
running is the database connection (assuming you want to use one,
otherwise skip that as well).
I'd be happy to see you becoming a baker soon!

Hey all,
A partially non-jquery question, anyone use any php frameworks? I was
looking at the zend framework, but not sure if it is any good.
The Zend Framework[1] is still being developed (0.6 is due sometime
later
this month), but IMO it looks very promising, especially with all of
the new
MVC stuff. A roadmap can be found at
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFDEV/Project+Management+Team .
IIRC
it has actually been used in production environments with a good
amount of
success (for a framework still in heavy development).
If you use a php frame work can you post a url and why you like it?
As I said, the Zend Framework looks really good. I've also heard good
things
about CakePHP[2].
