I prefer a good combination of both.  If you go "the php way", then you 
put more burden on the server than you probably would need to, whereas 
if you do more in Javascript in "pure form" then you take away a lot of 
the server burden to put onto the client, however, be prepared for the 
various "browser war"-related issues while doing so.

What I usually do is that I will write a PHP class like a 
JavascriptGenerator class that will dynamically build the necessary 
Javascript functions and scripts to be plugged into the resulting HTML 
to allow for the server to dynamically build what is necessary, all the 
while allowing the client to "share the load" so to speak.
