Hi Robert,

I indeed did try with format.js. It occurs an error: template is
missing, Missing template samples/update.js.erb.

as I say i already have a show template and show.js.rjs that is doing
everything necessary if def show is called by an AJAX request. that
why i would like to call def show via an xmlhttprequest but from def
update in the controller ( i am not sure i am really clear) and i
think that is what xml_http_request is supposed to do (but i can be
wrong as i am new to AJAX and co).
