Seeing as you're just jumping from one lost cause to another, I'll throw you a rope. What you're interested in using is actually the XMLHttpRequest API[0] which is often aliased as "AJAX" by marketers and fools. Secondly, you'd be well-advised to steer clear of Prototype.js. Richard Cornford has a well-known quote here regarding it. I believe Thomas Lahn still has it randomly pop up in his "signature" from time to time. I'll give you a hint: it's pretty scathing. I'd suggest digging through the XMLHttpRequest API documentation to understand how it truly works. That said, David Mark has a module in his My Library API[1] that covers "AJAX"[2]. I'd recommend at least giving it a test drive. It will mask warts in IE relating to ActiveX and other follies. For a clear beginner, that's a good idea.
