The bridge between GWT and PHP

Google Web Toolkit (GWT) applications, apart from connecting to servlets in time-honored Java™ fashion, can also use PHP Web services to send and receive data in XML. You'll explore methods to generate XML documents and process them, both in the Java language and in PHP.

And also check out Basic tips for using GWT with PHP as well.
And also almost forget referencing GWT's own documentation, it will also teach you how to send JSON which is being widely used data format among AJAX developers. Here is the step-by-step explanation how to build the StockWatcher application using GWT with PHP: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-doc-1-5/wiki/GettingStartedJSON
