The view is not processed on an ajax request. If I am sending ajax
requests to a controller that also serves a page, then I like to send
a variable with the ajax request to let me know:
def index():
if request.vars.is_ajax:
return DIV('this is an ajax request')
...do normal processing here...
There may be a better way though.
