As Web-based applications are pushing the "Rich User Experience" envelope, AJAX is quickly becoming a standard front-end for any PHP application. But unfortunately as PHP applications that utilize AJAX are being forced to morph from two-tier to three-tier architectures, pushing code to the client adds inherent issues with security and code maintenance.

New techniques are being developed which focuses on server-side generated AJAX, allowing developers to code AJAX applications in PHP instead of JavaScript. This session will discuss and demo many of these new techniques which will allow for the development of rich, AJAX user experiences without needing to code any JavaScript whatsoever.
