[Seaside] Noob jQuery AJAX question

you could try something like this:

| val | html div id: 'txt'; with: ''. html break. html select list: { 1. 2.
3. }; selected: 2; "Pass the selection back to the server and save it."
onChange: ((html jQuery ajax script: [ :s | s << (s jQuery: '#txt') text:
(val - 1) ]) serializeThis); callback: [ :v | val := v ]
