I've used Kohana and CodeIgniter, and I like CodeIgniter. Docs are awesome, community is active....

I think CodeIgniter is the most newbie friendly.  Lots of tutorials popping up with good information.

Have a look at the CodeIgniter from Scratch series over at Nettuts.  That should really get you going :)

I've been happy with CakePHP.  The documentation and community is pretty good.  I've always been able to find information when I run into a problem.  The conventions are pretty easily to follow and you can get up and running pretty quickly.
