Marnen: I have used WebBrick and Mongrel at the command prompt. Currently I have NetBeans 6.5 set to use Mongrel within NB, it seems to work the same, just no command window. I will investigate using your onclick suggestion. There's a handicap, though. I am totally new to javascript JavaScript, JScript JQuery, Rails prototype.js (I think it's a variant form of javascript), Ajax and JSON. Pretty clueless about it. I found a wonderful javascript tutorial at the www3 (world wide web online 'school') I am going to start learning there. In general it appears that HTML is one layer, the HTTP / Server communication protocol another, Rails 'ERB' yet another, the browser itself is also a layer and that javascript is an inter-layer link between the browser and the underlying HTML/generator/embedded logic generator tools. Obviously, there are different flavors of browser-to-embedded logic javascript tools. So, I plan to do javascipt, Rails prototype.js, AJAX, JSON in that order.
