McGill -

No, you don't need prior knowledge of frameworks or even the Model 2 Design Pattern. The first part of the book covers the history leading up to Model 2, and why it's a Good Thing. The framework chapters don't make any assumptions that you've heard of the framework before.

Do you review some IDE's for debugging etc?

I cover debugging web applications using the command line debugger (don't laugh -- you have to sometimes), NetBeans, and JBuilder.
