GWT also allows Ajax programming using only Java.  GWT compiles the Java to client-side JavaScript, whereas Jaxcent runs directly from the server side.  Server side has some obvious advantages -- the entire set of Java libraries, environment, databases, are all locally available and the programming environment is very familiar.  But network speeds are still slow enough that the client-side approach could offset some of these advantages by doing more work on the client.

• Dojo Toolkit
  Dojo is the Open Source JavaScript toolkit that helps you build serious applications in less time. It fills in the gaps where JavaScript and browsers don't go quite far enough, and gives you powerful, portable, lightweight, and tested tools for constructing dynamic interfaces. Dojo lets you prototype interactive widgets quickly, animate transitions, and build Ajax requests with the most powerful and easiest to use abstractions available. These capabilities are built on top of a lightweight packaging system, so you never have to figure out which order to request script files in again. Dojo's package system and optional build tools help you develop quickly and optimize transparently.
• JSP Controls Tag Library
  JSP Controls Tag Library provides the lifecycle for portlet-like JSP components. The Library does not require a portal engine or other central controller. The components built with the Library can be used in any JSP-based application.
• ThinWire
  ThinWire is a development framework that allows you to easily build applications for the web that look and feel like the desktop applications you're familiar with. ThinWire focuses exclusively on a server-side programming approach, rather than the blended client-side & server-side approach taken by many frameworks. A benefit of this approach is that your code base is typically written entirely in a single language on the server and therefore traditional development, debugging and unit testing methods work without modification. Further, this allows developers to spend their efforts focusing on implementing the actual business needs rather than tackling many of the complexities associated with client-side development. While virtually any web application can be built with ThinWire, when it comes to business applications, we feel there is no faster solution on which to build. To that end, a number of business banking applications built on ThinWire are currently used at a production capacity, one of which is at a top ten bank in the United States with over 1000 users.
• CAPXOUS AutoComplete
  CAPXOUS AutoComplete is an AJAX suggestion component. You may have already tasted this impressive feature on web sites like Google GMail or in business applications like SAP. Now you can have this feature in your applications. You can use it for searching airports, dealers, hotels, hospitals, products, email messages or phone numbers etc. Try demos below.
• ADF Faces
  Based on a donation from the Oracle company to the Apache fondation, this is a graphical framework based on JSF model. You will have access to basic component or other feature like validators. For the moment, the project is in an incubation state.
• Ajax4jsf
  Ajax4jsf is an open source framework that adds AJAX capability to existing JSF applications without using Javascript and it's fully leverages the benefits of the JavaServer Faces framework including lifecycle, validation, and conversion facilities and management of static and dynamic resources.
