When we are developing web application using PHP, it is not a one day process. Sometimes, we spent few months writing PHP code. If the code we wrote were very messy, it is very hard to understand what we wrote previously. So that, we need a PHP framework to work in a structured and rapid manner.
CakePHP is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like ActiveRecord, Association Data Mapping, Front Controller and MVC. The goal is to provide a structured framework that enables PHP users at all levels to rapidly develop robust web applications, without any loss to flexibility.
Requirements: HTTP server, PHP 4.3.2+, Database Engine

Prototype framework enables you to deal with Ajax in a very easy way. It simplifies the way of using Javascript and deals in a smart way with JavaScript code returned from a server and provides helper classes for polling. And also, it is cross-browser compatible.
The biggest part of the Prototype framework are its DOM extensions. Prototype adds many convenience methods to elements returned by the $() function: for instance, you can write $('editForm').addClassName('active').show() to get the element with the ID ‘editForm‘, add a class name to it and show it (if it was previously hidden).
This framework can save you more than 50% on coding javascript and developing an ajax driven with large amount of DOM manipulations web site. If you have not tried it, please have a look. A well-defined framework is needed for developing a professional web application.

David’s Kitchen wrote an article: Scalable CSS Buttons Using PNG and Background Colors taught us how to create dynamic CSS Buttons using PNG, transparency and background colors that degrades nicely and supports full scalability.
It is really handy for developers because the length of the button will be changed according to the length of the text. The buttons are very pretty with Web 2.0 style. The color of the button changed if you hover on it. However, the buttons are not looking very nice in Internet Explorer 6.0, hope there is a version which supports IE 6.0 as well soon.
Requirements: Internet Explorer 6.0+, Firefox 1.5+
