C:\wamp\zend, I seen this in my php info. I think the include path is correct. Still I have lot of doubt, where I start my work in zend framework? Which are the steps??

You probably don't want to have a single Zend framework instance for your entire server, as it's possible that different applications will want to use different versions. Although in your case it probably doesn't matter much. :)

As for getting started with Zend, there's a perfectly good tutorial on the Zend site you can read.

If you are looking for a tutorial and/or some documentation, especially if starting from scratch, here are a couple of links that could interest you :

• Survive The Deep End! : a free electronic-book about ZF
  • It's still work in progress,
  • but the existing chapters are quite good -- and they will allow you to start, at least.
• The official Quickstart : it's short, you can study it for something like 2 to 4 hours, I'd say, and it'll allow you to develop a really simple/basic/quick application.

Those might be helpful, for you to start.

And here are some other resources (there are quite a lot of resources about ZF, actually) :

• The official Reference Guide -- not quite perfect as a starting point, but it contains the documentation of every classes of the Framework, and most of their useful public methods ; you'll work with this one really often, I guess !
• A couple of screencasts
  • There are also webinars, and a couple podcasts
• More advanced, there are interesting articles about ZF on devzone
• Of course, you can find books about ZF, too. For instance :
  • Beginning Zend Framework
  • Zend Framework in Action
