</head>
<%= link_to_remote( "click here",
:update => "time_div",
:url => { :action => :say_when },
:position => "after" ) %>
<div id="time_div">
2.using form_remote_tag
<head>
<%=javascript_include_tag "prototype"%>
</head>
<%= form_remote_tag(:update => "my_list",
:url => { :action => :add_item },
:position => "top" ) %>
New item text:
<%= text_field_tag :newitem %>
<%= submit_tag "Add item with Ajax" %>
<%= end_form_tag %>
<ul id="my_list"></ul>
3.using Observers
Make an Ajax call to an action handler whenever the value of the field changes.
<head>
<%=javascript_include_tag "prototype"%>
</head>
Live search:<%=text_field_tag :searchtext%>
<%=observe_field(:searchtext,
:frequency=>0.25,
:update=>:search_hits,
:with => "searchtext",
:url=>{:action=>:live_search})%>
<p>Search Results :</p>
<div id="search_hits"></div>
