AJAX frameworks

[memco]

I'm thinking about adding an AJAX framework to our site. I don't want something with a lot of overhead or unneeded code. I need something to handle form validation, and table styling/sorting. What recommendations do you have for a framework to use (including rolling my own)?

jQuery is quite popular and has a vast landscape of plugins.
