ajax libraries for php
ok...
i never really got into javascript and i am not planning to.
but now ajax is pumping up js a lot...
i thought... mmmm maybe some pear pack or something could help me staying away from javascript...
i found a few... but almost all of them need some basic knowledge in javascript, wich i dont have...
this one looks kind of cool.... and so far it looks like the only one i could be able to use

do you use any similar thing?
wich one? how? does it save you a lot javascript coding?

What are you talking about? JS is a beautiful language... it's just that heaps of people don't use it correctly.panic! wrote:You should probably think about getting a basic grasp of JS, authough by it's nature it's not all the great, it's always very useful (in my experience at least)... my job title is: PHP developer, but I probably spend 33% of my time coding JS.
Well, just like HTML it's self, it's just not implimented very well yet, it's better than 5 years ago where you'd have to write twp totally seperate chunks of code all the time for 'the' two browsers.
getElementById is a godsend...and innerHTML becoming standard.
edit: two not too

I am a PHP programmer and would probably spend 80% of my time coding Javascript if it wasn't for libraries like Prototype.panic! wrote:You should probably think about getting a basic grasp of JS, authough by it's nature it's not all the great, it's always very useful (in my experience at least)... my job title is: PHP developer, but I probably spend 33% of my time coding JS.
That is a nice 'tiny' JS library, but I am not so wild about too much PHP generation of Javascript simply because I find that clean controller interfaces and pushing some of the MVC into Javascript does the same thing but more cleanly in my opinion. No special code -- just plain old request/response stuff.
