Dear all,  
Does anybody know a good reference for sending ajax request to rails  
without  
using the rails ajax helper? I want to use other framework, namely  
jQuery.  
Because without using the ajax helper from rails I encounter an  
authenticity  
error from rails.

Thank you very much in advance,
