Hi,
I am working in ruby on rails and i am new to that.

I need to invoke a rails controller method as onclick event of already existing links in my application.

I learnt that it is not possible to invoke rails server method throug javascript which runs client side.

I would appreciate if anyone help me to write jquery with ajax for doing this thing.
