AJAX: Which toolkit/Framework? 2

[Olavxxx]

Hi,
Does anyone have any AJAX toolkits/frameworks they would recommend me?

Functionality I want to implement with Ajax:
* Drag / Drop
* Upload
And other fancy things.. I think mainly data will have pictures as an important part and it should work for "dumb" users, so I want to make soring of images just to drag them, deleting of images, editing text, etc. all without knowing what html is.

php/mysql or asp.net will be backend. I think it will be PHP.

Check out Prototype and Dojo for starters. I favour the latter for many reasons, including that has built-in support for Scriptaculous effects.

Hope this helps,

Sorry - I meant I favour the former for it's Scriptaculous support. Dojo is OK, but not as good, IMHO.

I quite like the prototype framework. I've been using a little at work recently, and it's good... easy... reliable. Prototype is required for scriptaculous - and both are included in Ruby (should you be interested).

Still... as an AJAX library alone, prototype is nice. Check out Firebug Firefox extension at the same time... it allows you to easily watch the AJAX responses etc in the console.

Cheers,
Jeff
