Hello,

I’m trying to keep as restful as possible and have ran into a snag. Let  
me set up the scenario:

I have two different types of AJAX requests to update my Chore model.  
Depending on which ajax action is making the call, i want to return a  
particular partial rendered in JSON format so i can update the proper  
markup accordingly.

Thanks for any suggestions!
