[TYPO3-dev] Best practice for ajax use in BE?

[Jens Hoffmann]

Instead of JQuery I would use MooTools.net becouse it is one step further than JQ.
... Faster, Better Cross-Browser compatibilty and more Functions + Nicer Code!

Anyway Prototype is defently the badest Framework of all of them becouse it
changes JS functions and this makes the whole system incompatible with other
JS Frameworks. And the Code is quite unsexy.
