[Rails] Re: Headache with Ajax in Rails using jQuery

Thanks a lot everyone! Masta, I did as you said:

...

var values = $("#contactForm").serialize();

$.ajax({
url: "/main/contact",
type: "post",
data: values,
success: function(data, textStatus, xhr){
alert("textStatus: " + textStatus + "; xhr: " + xhr + "; data: " +
data);
$("#result").html(data.message);
}
});

Here's what I got based on the alert() above:
+ textStatus: success
+ xhr: [object XHMHttpRequest]
+ data: returned the source code of the current (contact) page (a
shock!) instead of the result in json that I expected.

Two possible issues: (1) I'm wondering if the ajax call made to the
server side to the contact action of the main controller, (2) whether
the result was rendered to json correctly by rails. Thanks again
everyone.
