Where can I find a good tutorial to get started with the latest version of Zend Framework using Eclipse or Netbeans? I would like Eclipse as my IDE as I like these features:
* Syntax highlighting
* Outline
* Code assist
* Code templates
Besides that I use Mysql 5 as the db.
Is there any free / paid video tutorials for the Zend framework as well ?
I will recommend you to "QuickStart" of Zend. It is a good start point. Link is http://framework.zend.com/docs/quickstart It explains step by step where you can start and how you can build your structure. And i will recommend you two books.
1-) Beginning Zend Framework (http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Zend-Framework-Armando-Padilla/dp/1430218258/ref=sr%5F1%5F1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1258554221&sr=8-1)
2-) Pro Zend Framework Techniques: Build a Full CMS Project (http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Zend-Framework-Techniques-Project/dp/1430218797/ref=sr%5F1%5F3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1258554221&sr=8-3)
I could not find vidoes about Zend Framework. Those books and Quickstart of Zend helped me to understand of framework.
There a quite a few videos on Youtube that show how to use ZF and MVC. I would check out this video which shows how to use Zend Studio. Zend Studio isn't free, but you can download a free 30 day trial version.
Other than that, you can install and try the PDT plugin and check out the tutorials for using it. PDT is a free opensource product, and you can use it with the ZF.bat/ZF.sh tool to build your ZF apps.
You also may want to explore these ZF tutorials. They were very helpful along with Rob Allen's tutorials on his Akrabat blog.
Hope that helps.
