Hi,

Just change the name of the method.  From 'parameters' documentation
on the Ajax.Options page I linked to (my CAPS):

<< The parameters for the request, which will be encoded into the URL
for a 'get' method, OR INTO THE REQUEST BODY FOR THE OTHER METHODS.
This can be provided either as a URL-encoded string or as any Hash-
compatible object (basically anything), with properties representing
parameters. >>
