Newbie respond_to question

I am sending data from a grid back to /configuration/edit/id

This works, the data gets to the server.

The problems is that my jQuery setup:

$.ajaxSetup({
url: ‘<%= params[:id] %>.json’,
contentType: “application/json”,
dataType: “application/json”,
success: function(msg) {
console( "Data Saved: " + msg );
}
});

and controller

respond_to do |format|
  begin
    format.json {
        # some logic here
    }
    format.html { render :action => 'edit.html.erb' }
  rescue
 end

gives me an ActionView error.

So, data goes to server from jQuery, but then the server side error.
No idea why it’s reverting to edit.erb

Any help appreciated.
