Answer 1

Best practice is likely as Matt mentions in the comment above: use JSON. If you're going to use jQuery, you can have a PHP script you call using either $.get() or $.getJSON(). You can find the manual for PHP JSON here: http://php.net/manual/en/book.json.php, and the API reference for the jQuery method $.getJSON() here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.getJSON/
