dojo may do what you want. See

It does what it does quiet well until you run out of documentation.
Even on #dojo everyone admits that you pretty much have to be one of
the project's core developers to get stuff done with it.

What do you mean by 'back button support' ? There are many ways to
support back button in a ajax webapp, so it'd be good if you say what
you'd want.

Generally MochiKit tries to be not too much intrusive, and I don't see
how you can support back buttons without modifying server code.

Well, it seems to me that concept of 'Back Button Support' is pretty
straightforward - you press the back button, and then go to the last
visited page. ie. just what people expect the back button to do.

I did see some javascript type solutions, but whatever solution that I
can implement that would allow me to simply recreate the function of
the back button when doing AJAX stuff is what I'm looking for, and what
I was able to dig up didn't look simple...

Thanks,

Mark

The back button concept goes out the window once you start  
introducing smaller, asynchronous, sub-page requests. Most solutions  
I've seen involve modifying the window.location attribute (usually  
changing hash values), but these solutions are more often for AJAXy  
navigation than any real undo.

Yes, but the concept of page in an Ajax app is somewhat unclear,
because it depends of what you do at each user inputs. Here you can see
a good solution: http://www.contentwithstyle.co.uk/Articles/38/. But
it's difficult to find a generic solution to this problem.
