Zend Framework and JQuery
I've been using Zend Framework v1.7.0PR to take advantage of the new JQuery support, which can be found under the ZendX (Zend Extras) directory. ZendX_JQuery is a great starting point and makes using JQuery in Zend Framework based applications quick and intuitive.
The ZendX_JQuery component helps set up the JQuery environment, and supports using Google's CDN to load both JQuery, and JQueryUI. In addition, there are a number of view helpers that make autocompletion, datepickers, and other JQueryUI features a breeze.
What currently isn't supported yet, is loading additional JQuery plugins, although it's a breeze to implement since the usage of most plugins is similar to the existing JQuery view helpers.
