PRAjax - PHP Reflected Ajax
Welcome to PRAjax!
The PRAjax class can be used to reflect PHP code into JavaScript and Ajax methods and vice-versa.
The following features make this library worth using:
- Allows easier Ajax programming with PHP
- PHP functions and objects can be reflected to JavaScript
- PHP objects can be used in JavaScript, both properties and (registered) functions
- PRAjax creates all wrappers for the developer
- Automatic conversion of return values and parameters between PHP and JavaScript

v1.2.2 (28/07/2006):
- Removed separate client-side core function PRAjax.ObjectCall and refactored to use PRAjax.Call in all situations
- PRAjax.Nothing does not have to be specified when no callback function is needed. PRAjax determines this for itself.

- Refactored prajax.js to prajax.js, prajax_transfer.js and prajax_util.js and modified build.bat for this
- PRAjax can now use an external transport instead of the built-in one. Check the example example_helloworld_prototype.php for an example using prototype.js transport

- Added client-side function PRAjax.Nothing to have an empty function when no server return value is needed
