Something where you can describe the syntax in less than a page and
write a correct implementation in half an hour or less would probably
be good enough. Like maybe just newline-delimited key=value pairs, or
something like JSON at worst.
I don't see any point to inventing yet another markup language for
internal data transfer; I'd much rather use something that:
1) is a known, implemented standard
2) has standard support in PHP
3) has standard support in JavaScript
If you feel the need to describe the syntax, you've already lost time
and gained nothing. :)
