[Grok-dev] Simple AJAX question

[Sebastian Ware]

Nr 1 can be solved with an AJAX call to a JSON method, more info on  
JSON support in Grok:

Nr 2 would be solved with Javascript without interaction from the  
server.

Your choice of Javascript framework is a matter of personal  
preference. But you could say that if you don't want to learn  
Javascript, check out jQuery, and if you want to create slick  
Javascript classes try Mootools.
