I am trying to call an action within a javscript function using ajax,
but I am having some problems.  I need the ajax call to return a value
and am thinking I can do this using onComplete and Ajax.Request but I
am running into some problems.  This is the code I am using for the
Ajax.Request:

    new Ajax.Request( '/users/username', {
      method: 'post',
      parameters: { username: $('new_user_username').value},
      onComplete: parseResults()
    });

I have an action called username in my users controller in which I am
taking the username params passed by the Ajax.Request and seeing if it
exists in the database.  I want to return true/false depending on if
it exists or not.  But I am having trouble even getting the
Ajax.Request to work.

This is some of the output from the console:

Processing UsersController#username (for 192.168.1.105 at 2008-12-13
19:52:39) [POST]
  Session ID:

  Parameters: {"username"=>"d", "action"=>"username",
"controller"=>"users"}


ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken
(ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken):

Im not sure how to get around this InvalidAuthenticityToken, anyone
have any idea whats going on here.  Ive been struggling with this for
a while and am somewhat new to ajax so I could use some help.
