This forum is for people learning the Python language and the standard
library. CGI is a standard module but not often used these days for web
programming since much better frameworks exist that make things much
easier. jax is not really a beginners topic nor directly related to the
Python language.
Since most Python web development frameworks include standard ways of
writing Ajax calls so the answer will depend on which framework you
choose, and then support for that will be best given via the framework
forum.
Having said all that, if are using the standard cgi module and you can
show us a very simple example of what you have tried and explain what
happened we might be able to help out.
I just completed this tutorial
Which tutorial, there are many. Don't make us guess!

That's the usual way to program in CGI its all done at the server end.
Do you understand how the http/CGI mechanism works? Can you write a
traditional CGI web application?
If you have not already done so I recommend that you read this:
http://docs.python.org/py3k/howto/webservers.html
and consider using one of the web frameworks mentioned there.
