Oh, I got it.  I needed to change it to this in the view:

//<![CDATA[
  <%= remote_function(:url => { :action => :lookup } ) %>
//]]>


I remember reading elsewhere that for some reason, having the update 
part in both the view and the controller was redundant and caused an 
exception like that.

Thanks so much!
