Looks like a problem in Seaside and/or Scriptaculous.

The SeasideAsync javascripts use the XML parser supplied by the
XMLHttpRequest object. Therefore the response from the live
callback must be well-formed XML, otherwise, it cannot be parsed
(at least in some browsers).

When the response from the live callback includes some Scriptaculous
stuff, then it is not well-formed, because it contains some ampersands.
Since Seaside generates the script tags with #html: rather than #text:
there is no encoding of ampersands into entities. This is not well- 
formed
XML and cannot be parsed, at least by the Firefox XML parser.

I do not know what should be fixed, Seaside or Scriptaculous.

Lukas, any idea ?

Meanwhile, you can try the following fix to SUAjax :

parameters
	^ (self options at: 'parameters' ifAbsentPut:
			[ SUJoin join: OrderedCollection new with: '&' ]) collection

HTH,
