I would recommend web2py [1].

It supports (and comes with) jquery, has awesome ajax integration.

I have read (somewhere - I can't find the link now, you can probably
google it) that it runs as fast or faster than django (and some other
frameworks).

For Django VS web2py see [2]
For Turbogears VS web2py see [3]
> If Django, how to do Ajax support for you? and why?
For info on web2py and ajax see [4].
Also web2py supports SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MSSQL, FireBird and Oracle
databases - which is very cool for me as I often need to work on different
RDBMS's. Internationalisation is also a cinch. Plus - you can run the
whole framework from a USB drive and it includes a administrative
interface with a text editor so you can code your project *entirely* in a
web browser. It also runs on almost anything that supports python :
windows, unix/linux, OS X etc. I also has a very active and helpful
mailing list
I have tried a couple of other frameworks but only web2py gave me that
'just right' feel. Don't, however take only my word for it - and try other
frameworks to find the one that works for you. One is, fortunately, spoilt
for choice with all the cool python frameworks these days. :)

Sells, Fred
server side and pass xml or json in between. It gives you a Flash
client which is very Sexy and browser independent and very simple
turbogears code in Python.
Flex is essentially open source, but the IDE is about $295, although
there are multiple ways of getting it for free, including a 30 day eval.
The IDE is an Eclipse plugin, and is well worth the $$$ if you decide to
go that way.

For the javascript library I would strongly recommend extjs:
It makes javascript work VERY easy including event handling, GUI
building, ajax calls, etc, etc.

yes, you can write python - and have it compiled to AJAX: http://pyjs.org

pyjamas. then you get to write the front-end in python _and_ the
back-end in python.
see http://pyjs.org/book/output/Bookreader.html#Rest%20of%20the%20World
which will help you to choose at least between django and web.py for
AJAX-based frameworks, as there are four example techniques
illustrated to do JSONRPC.
