Xajax

This nifty PHP Library makes it easier to make AJAX scripts.

Example:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

include './xajax/xajax_core/xajax.inc.php';



$xajax = new xajax();



$rqstAdd =& $xajax->register(XAJAX_FUNCTION, 'doAdd');

$rqstReset =& $xajax->register(XAJAX_FUNCTION, 'doReset');



// set the parameters

$rqstAdd->setParameter(0, XAJAX_JS_VALUE, 39);

$rqstAdd->setParameter(1, XAJAX_JS_VALUE, 571);



$xajax->processRequest();



function doAdd($a, $b)

{

    $response = new xajaxResponse();

    $response->assign('answer', 'innerHTML', $a + $b);

    $response->assign('reset', 'style.display', 'block');

    return $response;

}



function doReset()

{

    $response = new xajaxResponse();

    $response->clear('answer', 'innerHTML');

    $response->assign('reset', 'style.display', 'none');

    return $response;

}

You forgot the URL: xajax PHP Class Library - The easiest way to develop asynchronous Ajax applications with PHP

I've seen this library before but personally, I prefer doing all AJAX stuff myself. Some time ago I was using AJAX in the admin panel of the system I had designed. In the user management pane you could browse/add/edit/delete users all via AJAX, without reloading the page. Browsing users was the most tricky cause the script downloaded a list of users (id, name, email, level etc) and had to dinamically build the HTML table with that information, I don't know if you can do this kind of thing using a library like XAJAX.

I much prefer jquery or mootools!

Prototype :)
jQuery (or Prototype/mooTools) with JSON :) the way to go.
Just create a little web interface for your AJAX script.
And you're rady to go. I don't belive in php solution that emulates javascript :)
