title: Updating DIV's using .NET 4 MVC 3 and jQuery
body: <p>I am using .NET 4, MVC 3 and jQuery to create a diagnostics page.  This page will allow users to manually run tests on our system by calling out to various web services.  I want to have 3 forms on a view for 3 separate tests.  Each form submission should return a value asynchronously so that they could submit just two of the tests and then see the return values of the tests without refreshing the page.</p>
  
  <p>In my PHP days, I would have setup an Ajax call for each form and then hit a server-side script to do the work and return a value, but I'm having a hard time, conceptually, translating this over to an MVC solution.  I would be grateful if someone would provide some example code on how to accomplish this and where each piece of code should go (Views, Controllers, Partial Views, etc...)</p>
  
  <p>It seems so simple, but I just can't seem to wrap my head around it today.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance...</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>
  
  <p>Eric Sowell put on a great lesson, teaching MVC 3 and jQuery best practices.  It's an hour long and includes DDD design principles along with DI and focuses on creating reusable jQuery code.</p>
