Hi the list,

I have to develop a web 2.0 apps for the iPhone.
I come from Java/J2EE background.

First, I have to choose some JS library/framework.
This is not simple since there are tons of them !
My needs are focused on few points :
* the widgets. I need a really goos widget lib.
* serialise data with JSON or XML or ... I don't really care how but 
data need to go fast from client to server.
* quick and small code.
I do not care about internal construction like object oriented or not, 
DOM, blablabla...

Short list is Dojo, ExtFS, IceFaces, iUI from Google code.

GWT is excluded as I think starting with Java to finish in Javascript 
could be quicker by starting with JS directly.
Too much step, too complicated.

I read a lot of positive things about prorotypeJS but I can't find any 
widgets in it.

Then, I have to choose the backend, yeah, lots of headeach :-)
Again, a lot of possible choice : Java, PHP, Ruby on Rails ?
The criteria would be "less code" for CRUD persistence.
Of course, I'll need a web session.

Currently, I'm considering starting a proto with Dojo/PHP.
Is there an equivalent for PHP of Java Hibernate lib ?
Again, I'm do not care about object orientation and POJO domain object.
I can deal with direct serialisation to client side of SQL querie results.
Except that I need a solution for relationship like Client -> Address.

Any feedback, recommendation, ... ?

Thanks !
