In exactly the same way as "add.php". But having done that, you're trying to initiate a cross-origin request, which is a violation of the Same Origin Policy[1] and will typically be denied. To do this with Ajax.Updater, the remote site will have to implement CORS[2], granting permission to the origin of your document to POST it data, and your user would have to be using a CORS-enabled browser. Firefox, Chrome, and Safari (at least) implement CORS transparently (you don't have to do anything in your client code); IE6 and IE7 don't implement it at all; and IE8 implements it, but only if you use their special API for it (which Ajax.Updater currently doesn't). Another approach which is currently more broadly-supported on the client is to use JSONP[3], if the remote site supports that. You'll have to do it a bit manually, I don't think Prototype currently has any direct JSONP support.
