jQuery example overview

I just found a page from Mathias Bank with 50 jQuery examples. Might be interesting for anyone who is interested in using jQuery in CakePHP. Definitely worth a few of your minutes... or maybe more :)

HOWTO Use Zend Framework in CakePHP

This article will describe shortly how you can extend the power of CakePHP using the Zend Framework. I know, earlier this week I talked about war when writing about these two.
