Question

Please let me know the equivalent of below prototype code in Jquery.
var myAjax = new Ajax.Updater('abc', '/billing/add_bill_detail', {
method: 'get',
parameters: pars,
insertion: Insertion.Bottom
});
I want to perform the same action using Jquery.
Thanks in Advance.

Answer 1

In jQuery the Ajax will use as following:
$.ajax({
url: "/billing/add_bill_detail",
type: "get",
dataType: "html",
data: {"pars" : "abc"},
success: function(returnData){
$("#abc").html(returnData);
},
error: function(e){
alert(e);
}
});
Use #abc if abc is the id of the div or use .abc if abc is a class.
You can place the returnData iin your HTML where you want,

Answer 2

There are some ways using ajax like jQuery.ajax({...}) or $.ajax({...}) other than this there are some simplified versions of these too like:
$.get() or jQuery.get()
$.post() or jQuery.post()
$.getJSON() or jQuery.getJSON()
$.getScript() or jQuery.getScript()
$ = jQuery both are same.
As you are using method : 'get', so i recommend you to use $.ajax({...}) or $.get() but remember to include jQuery above this script otherwise ajax function wont work Try to enclose the script in the $(function(){}) doc ready handler.
'abc' if you could explain it
Try adding this with $.ajax():
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/billing/add_bill_detail",
data: pars,
dataType: 'html'
success: function(data){
$('#abc').html(data); //<---this replaces content.
},
error: function(err){
console.log(err);
}
});
});
</script>
or with $.get():
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
$.get("/billing/add_bill_detail", {data: pars}, function(data) {
$('#abc').html(data); //<---this replaces content.
}, "html");
});
</script>
or more simply use the .load() method:
$('#abc').load('/billing/add_bill_detail');

Answer 3

You can use .load() method
Load data from the server and place the returned HTML into the matched
element.
Read docs: http://api.jquery.com/load/
