What are the benefits of both...
ideally I would want the smaller of the two...it seems jQuery has a more plugable arch. so I would suspect (from first glance) jQuery is better this way?
Basically I need:
1) Cross platform - easy AJAX support
2) Simple animations like those fading headers in Wordpress (go from green to white - blend with background transition)
3) FORM validation - although I think I'll be using qForm for that
4) Key capturing, specifically "Cancel"
Given this simple criteria which would you suggest I use?
Prototype VS jQuery

Hmmmm...touche. 
Although in my defense, the replies even from feyd were vague. Actually yours wasn't too bad. At least I have impression that jQuery is something of a easier to manipulate DOM, which is fine with me - it's why I want to use a lib instead of hand-coding anyways.
Are you aware of any other differences which might be of interest to me?

I understand though, really I do. Simple arithmatic really.
