www.phpkitchen.com has some tutorials and the HTML_QuickForm is simple and effective. Without it, you might not freeze the form after successful validation and other not-so-obvious aspects of QuickForm.

The samples in the PEAR docs are excellent for the controller and you can get up an running happily and quickly with them. Hint: refering to the pages as page1, page2, etc is NOT optional. You'll see what I mean and where I mean it ;)
