Hmmm. trying to put this into action, but I'm not straight on how to do it.
I figured what you meant was to create two pages. one page would have
the ajax line you wrote out and the other would the mycfpage.cfm
I have a query on the mycfpage.cfm.
<CFQUERY Name="Get_Data" Datasource="Bodaford" MaxRows="1">
Select Title, Text
from announcements
</CFQUERY>
.along with the page HTML, body, head tags, etc. (or should it just have
the query?)
Now I'm not sure how you want me to put the jQuery code on a page that
I called ajax_test.cfm. Should the line you wrote out go in the body "as
is"
or should it be written out in the head section with the
$(document).ready(function() {, etc
around it?
You can tell, I'm new to both jQuery and ajax!
I appreciate your help!

Subject: Re: [jQuery] Best way to do AJAX... CF or jQuery?
Rick,
You need both. You use jQuery to send requests to a server side scripting
language like CF (or php, asp, cgi, etc) .
Perhaps the simplest way to introduce yourself to an "ajax" activity would
be to use jQuery's load() function.
Try this:
$("##displaycfoutput").load("mycfpage.cfm?param1=#something#¶m2=#somethi
ngelse#");
On your mycfpage.cfm, put a database query using the URL vars your passed.
Hope that helps.
Michael
