There is no standard Ajax framework, and I believe there will never
be...
Ruby on Rails uses Prototype, that's probably why Prototype is a
trend more than a standard.
But what I believe is that Prototype is really simple to use and
effective, with a very small footprint.
Also you might want to use Dojo, or Yahoo UI Library. They have
several widgets that one can use.
On a daily basis I use Prototype (and derivatives scriptaculous,
rico) + Dojo, it works fine to me.
Dojo is evolving in huge steps with tons of widgets and great
features. Lacks a bit of documentation,
but this will change while the project matures. (Don't be afraid to
step in the source code..)
To wrap up, you must use whatever will serve you better. I just gave
you my perspective of things :)

Renan,
For what I know, there is not so much of a really great Prototype
Tutorial.
But checkout this one, it might help you (or not):
http://www.petefreitag.com/item/515.cfm
Since you might want to easily understand Prototype you must start
with this
great book:
http://www.amazon.com/Pragmatic-Ajax-Web-2-0-Primer/dp/0976694085
It cover several Ajax frameworks and toolkits. A must have! I've
learned a
lot from this one.
In order to use the plugin from Catalyst you must read the cpan
documentation:
http://search.cpan.org/~sri/Catalyst-Plugin-Prototype-1.32/lib/
Catalyst/Plugin/Prototype.pm
The available methods for the plugin can be found in AnnoCPAN:
http://www.annocpan.org/~ESSKAR/HTML-Prototype-1.48/lib/HTML/
Prototype.pm
Good reference documentation for prototype.js itself is found in:
http://www.sergiopereira.com/articles/prototype.js.html
Hope it helps,
Bye
