Here's the Zend Framework homepage:
http://framework.zend.com/

You shouldn't have to download it. I'm pretty sure it comes bundled with Zend Core. But you can find some documentation there. Zend also offers a class on the Zend Framework, if memory serves me well.

You can also find books and tutorials on the Internet. Start with Zend Developer Zone for tutorials and Amazon.com for books.

Frameworks tend to be complex. They may improve productivity and maintainability in the long run, but I wouldn't expect an immediate jump in short-term productivity.

If you really want "canned" development of web sites, try Drupal. Drupal is a content management system that's written in PHP. I have set up two websites with Drupal running on the Zend Server Community Edition. I wrote only 4-5 lines of PHP (to tweak how a theme displayed pages). Both web sites have blogs, forums, polls, wikibooks, user profiles, contact forms, and great control over user permissions. I haven't tried running Drupal on the IBM i yet. It would be interesting to have access to IBM i resources in a Drupal web site.

Subject: [WEB400] Zend framework and canned web pages

I was doing some reading over the weekend and saw that with the zend
framework you can use a 'canned' web page. It appears the design is already
there and you need to feed it the data. Is this part of the free stuff that
comes with the I, or would that be part of 5250 bridge? Is there somewhere I
can go to read further on this? Some examples?

Thanks
