I your example:

<div id="target"></div>
 {{=A('a link',
      _href='#',
      _id='test',
      _onclick="ajax('update_target',['test'],':eval');" % id
      )
    )}}

The problem is not using A. The problems are:
- % id but there is not %s in the string
- the first argument of the ajax function is a relative path and I am
not sure relative to what, you should use URL
- the second argument ['test'] assumes that <input id='test'/> and
tries to pass the value of the input filed but, in your case,
id='test' is the tag itself so ajax fails.

You can do

<div id="target"></div>
 {{=A('a link',
      _href='#',
      _onclick="ajax('%s',[],':eval');" % URL
(r=request,f='update_target')
      )
    )}}
