Great talk, tons of information, almost to the point of information overload. Awesome slides accompany the talk, however, making things a lot easier to follow. Thanks for posting the slides beforehand. Great job!

good background setup and examples; While it wasn't always clear which classes methods were being invoked upon, it was presumed they were either on objects of type element or form

A LOT of information covered in such a short amount of time. Tons of great ideas for fixing issues, and doing it right. I loved how one of his examples had showed that the better way to do it was to use PHP, with minor bits of Apache magic, rather than using some big complicated mod_rewrite.

As always, great job. I found the translation approach to customized error messages interesting and innovative. Never thought of doing it that way before...

Awesome talk! I hope somebody recorded it. If so, I'm going to make my devs watch it when I get back.

I like PHP! Buy viagra!

Thanks for the discussion. I feel like I finally understand how everything is supposed to work. I'm going to dig into it again.

I also found this post that talks about using Zend_Form outside of MVC: http://www.tibobeijen.nl/blog/2009/12/07/using-zend_form-without-zend-framework-mvc/

I typically expect to learn 1-2 things per session. This talk had so many good recipes and topics that I lost count of all the cool things I wrote down to later implement.

I like all the cool non-traditional techniques for blocking spam and gaming techniques. Eli's got a lot of really creative ideas that go way beyond the typical methods.

Very knowledgeable. Good answers to some complex questions as well. Personally, I think I'll keep to using Zend_Form for my backend setup and validation and continue to handle manual rendering in my views.
