Just wondering what smart people do for parsing data sent by the Javascript XMLHTTP object--e.g., http.send("post",url,true)...

In a normal form submit, the $_POST global nicely allocates form elements as array elements automatically. But with the AJAX way, the data get stuffed inside $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA as a string, thereby making extraction more tedious.

What format is the data you are posting in? If it's in the usual format, PHP should parse it for you. An AJAX (hate that acronym) post request is no different to a normal post, unless you are not posting in the form format (var1=val2&var2=val2).
