All the time, I use PHP on server side to generate HTML/XHTML directly or via Smarty/PHPTAL or any other templating engine. I do believe most of developers follow the same path most of the time.

Now I’m thinking of delegating GUI & client-side to GWT and using to send RPCXML / RPCJSON / POST / GET to server side which run PHP. I’m looking for good examples of doing so. It’s great to have code accompanied. Thanks in advance.

EXTRA:

Although I could not find any example site, I have found documents that hint on using JSON as a mean for data exchange.

    You won’t find them.

    GWT uses a non-transparent protocol for GWT-RPC communication. This is easy and relatively convenient in Java where the GWT compiler creates that for you. You’d have to reverse engineer that for PHP.

    If you want a rich UI with a PHP backend I’d suggest you look at YUI or ExtJS (among others).
