my suggestion is pick up some basic PHP 1st. i am also new to Zend Framework,
i wont say i am an expert in PHP either but working with ZF ok. except maybe
it slows me down a little becos of the learning curve.
nature of ZF ... hmm i use it mainly with the MVC structure ... dunno if
this is the right answer. or maybe i shld say its like just another
framework. like jQuery is a framework for Javascript
requirements ... a PHP server ... with htaccess support
what it allows u to do ... suppose to speed up development by providing
classes for alot of things
how to work with it ... i guess u must learn abit i feel ZendCasts is a
great starting point then the docs ... for reference ... this community for
some help in learning
