[UPHPU] Javascript Toolkit

[jtaber]

Don't overlook Dojo - it's an excellent toolkit and offers great 
automatic SVG rendering performance if it senses the browser supports it 
(so you can suggest to your clients to run Firefox)  To me dojo offers 
widgets that are more useful for web 2.0 stuff (but that's highly 
dependent on what you're doing).  Obviously proto/script is popular for 
a reason. 

A great source for info is the ajaxian web site www.ajaxian.com
