I had some trouble getting LOAD to work, so I used something like
this:
In the html:
<div id="variable_text">
</div>
<a href=# id="click_me">Click here</a>
In the javascript:
$document.ready(function(){
$('#click_me').live('click', function(){
ajax('make_variable_text', [], ':eval');
});
});
In the controller:
def make_variable_text():
# do stuff to create text
return "$('#variable_text').html('the text you just created');"
Caveat: beware of failures to close quotes and brackets in the sample
code. I am sloppy that way.
Make sure you strip any new line sequences "\n" out of the text you
return; Firefox chokes on them.
