which framework is best in javascript

I vote Mootools. I think the effects are smoother and the syntax is easier for me to understand.

 

some articles on the subject of jquery vs mootools:

* Why MooTools (or Why not JQuery)

* jQuery vs Mootools: your choice? And why?

Seems like contradiction to me.

Also post some pro jquery (jquery vs mootols) articles while your at it.

 

What I find funny is that mootools.net have a link to mediatemplate.net saying in partnership with mt (seems like they are sponsored by them or something) while mediatemplate.net uses jQuery.

fail.

 

i find this so very funny that I shall be basing all my decisions on framework selection upon whatever choices some random hosting company administrator has picked for his own ease of use...

weak. and you know it.

 

Oh come on.

That is not what I'm saying at all.

 

I would say jquery. Best lightweight, easy to work with script that I've used and stuck too.

 

That's funny, although it's true that most sites nowadays use jQuery especially since its bundled with many CMS's now as well (Wordpress in particular uses jQuery in the backend). I wouldn't particularly say "fail" though, because Mediatemple provides the hosting for Mootools which is rather irrelevant to JavaScript.

 

True

I think Drupal uses jQuery also.

 

+1 for jQuery. And, yes, Drupal uses jQuery too.

 

so what? joomla uses mootools. so do WC3, for that matter. but that's irrelevant - i am still saying the choice of framework is not a popularity contest but an informed decision based on the project's needs.

 

True. Nobody here mentions Prototype + Script.aculo.us?
It has been the first JS framework I used and it is the default choice for RoR..

 

And who was saying it was?

Not I, for one.

 

Some Best Frameworks for java sctipt are
1> Sproutcore
2> Javascript MVC
3> Asanaluna
4> qooxdoo

 

Two hands for jQuery. Easy, flexable, have many pluggins and mobile version.

 

Wow, bump of a four year old thread, and my post is as true today as it was then...

 

If you develop applications using asp.net / c # I recommend use ajaxpro library combined with pure javascript

 

JQuery is a new kind of JavaScript Library. JQuery is a fast and concise JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions for rapid web development. JQuery is designed to change the way that you write JavaScript.

[h=2]Advantages[/h]

• Ease of use
  This is pretty much the main advantage of using JQuery, it is a lot more easy to use compared to standard javascript and other javascript libraries. Apart from simple syntax, it also requires much less lines of code to achieve the same feature in comparison.
• Large library
  JQuery enables you to perform hordes of functions in comparison to other Javascript libraries.
• Strong opensource community. (Several jQuery plugins available)
  JQuery, while relatively new, has a following that religiously devote their time to develop and enhance the functionality of JQuery. Thus there are hundreds of prewritten plugins available for download to instantly speed up your development process. Another advantage behind this is the efficiency and security of the script.
• Great documentation and tutorials
  The JQuery website has a comprehensive documentation and tutorials to get even an absolute beginner in programming to get the ball rolling with this library.
• Ajax support
  JQuery lets you develop Ajax templates with ease, Ajax enables a sleeker interface where actions can be performed on pages without requiring the entire page to be reloaded. A pretty but simple example of this can be seen above the fold on
