$(sel).load(url,data,callback)

The .load() function is the only Ajax function that works
off a jQuery selector. It calls a URL on the server and loads the result as
content into selected element(s). It’s a very quick and easy way to load Html
fragments and inject them into the document if your result is HTML. An optional
callback can be provided to be notified with the server result text when the
callback completes which is useful if you want to visually adjust the retrieved
content – like applying an effect to visually cue the user to an update.

$.getJSON(url,data,callback)

Similar to $.post(), but expects the result to be JSON
which is automatically deserialized into a Javascript value and passed to the
callback as a parameter. While this function is handy for simple JSON results
there are two things to watch out for

Global Ajax Events

There also a number of global Ajax events that you can take
advantage of all of which take callbacks as parameters: ajaxCallback(),
ajaxError(), ajaxSend(), ajaxStart(),ajaxStop(),ajaxSuccess(). These are useful
for setting up global handlers that can centrally manage Ajax requests.

To load a stock quote with jQuery we can now very easily
read the symbol and use the .load() function to load the result into divResult.

<script
type="text/javascript">

   
function showStockQuote() {                       

       
$("#divResult").load("StockDisplay.aspx",

                            
{ symbol: $("#txtSymbol" ).val() });  

    }

</script>

That’s it! We call .load() with the URL plus the optional
data parameter which can be either a string (a raw POST buffer) or an object
map, the properties of which turn into POST parameters. Here I’m passing an
object with a single symbol property that is turned into a POST var.
