If you make a XMLHttpRequest using $.ajax() in jQuery CakePHP will only return the markup of the view, not the layout.
I believe you can achieve the same with .load() if you append something to the query string, check that within in your action and set the layout to 'ajax'. Which should give you a similar effect. Though sending a XMLHttpRequest is recommended as it is core CakePHP functionality. (Less hacking in your actions required).
