title: Server side language for an Ajax interface?
body: <p>There's a website with an Ajax interface. My goal is to open up the page with Ajax components locally, in a browser, to let the Ajax interface fetch data (in a text file) from my local server. What is a good server-side language for this? i.e. having a competent library for Ajax interfaces. I want something lightweight so Java is kind of out of the question. </p>
  
  <p>I'm currently thinking PHP, NodeJS or Python. Thanks for the help! </p>
