Kevin, thanks a lot for answering my question. :-)

I am a little confused. I thought when I post the form, the controller
will send back some result e.g.
def update_result
  render :text => 'some returned text'
end

And, the form will automatically, stuff that result into the div which
is identified by <div par="updated_result>. But, nothing is not
happening. It's my 1st try to use Ajax on Hobo. So, I am a bit
perplexed by not seeing any result. Can you please correct my error
and perhaps show an example please?

Thanks a million,

-Ray
