  Old  Your Favourite Framework?

Well?

I have recently got into using Javascript and Frameworks for a forum I am making, and I have to say I find mootools amazing.

I know prototype / scriptalicious / JsQuery are other frameworks, but what is YOUR favourite, and why?

My favorite is Mootools, too.

That said, the downside to Mootools is that it does not play nice with the other kids at all. Running it at the same time as you run another framework is usually a recipe for disaster. However, I don't know of any features that other frameworks offer that Mootools doesn't have, so it usually hasn't mattered for me.

My endorsement isn't all that impressive, though. I'm still something of a Javascript newbie myself, and my main experience has been with Mootools and YUI, so I can't really intelligently compare Mootools with jquery, etc.

I've been using Spry XML Datasets, they're so easy to use.

I prefer jQuery for the simple of use, but also prototype is great.

Prototype, hands down.

I like prototype as well, but I don't like that it's freaking huge and slows down my websites...

I would definitely say jQuery. It's fast and extremely easy to use, though powerful enough to do whatever you want it to.

I used to use Scriptaculous, though great, it's just a little too big for my liking.

Is there anyone that can break down some differences between Mootools and jQuery? I've used Mootools, but not anything else and would like to know what their respective assets and drawbacks are.

I'm starting to like extLib. It is more for the corporate era.
