For performance reasons, I need to render a partial asyncronously  
(after the page loads). I’ve already isolated the code into a  
partial, but I haven’t figured out how to render it after the page  
loads. Do I have to fire off the onload event in raw javascript? Any  
ideas how to do this? It seems like a common problem, but I haven’t  
seen any solutions online for this.

Thanks,  
Scott

Yeah, you could do it with ajax and onload

maybe this is what you are looking for?
