'Better' is a little subjective and prone to generate a flame war, but I'll
risk my opinion. You might want to check Yahoo User Interface (YUI). The
Connection Manager at http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/connection/ provides
reliable cross-browser JavaScript code for the client side. You might want
to check the YUI for other goodies as well. It only deals with client-side
Javascript which lets you handle the sever side pretty much whichever way
you want it so you are not forced to buy into a whole framework, client and
server side, when you don't really need that much.
Unless you have good reasons to serve data in XML format, to keep life
simple, I would also sugest you use JSON, which is easy to generate (recent
PHP versions have json_encode() and json_decode()) and is native JavaScript.
On the client (JavaScript) side, I would recomend this functions:
http://blog.davglass.com/files/yui/docs/YAHOO.Tools.html instead of those at
http://www.json.org/js.html, though the later site is good in terms of
explaining and it has a comparison of different JSON functions for PHP, in
case your version does not support it.

Subject: What sripts,helpers to use for AJAX
I want to add some AJAX communication to my pages and would like to know,
what scripts, helpers you would recommend. I don't want to use a full
featured framework, just something to do the AJAX work. So far I've come
across the following solutions
http://prajax.sourceforge.net/
http://sanjer.berlios.de/
yet they both doesn't seem very much used. Does anybody know these or
knows better alternatives?
