I feel like an idiot for asking since there are so many posts in this group on Ajax->link questions but, I have already wasted 2 hours trying to find the answer.
I was following a small tutorial to get Ajax working (the one with the stars =D ) and it didn't work. So, I tried to do a little test and this is my real problem, I can use $ajax->link and get a link to show up. Viewing the source, you can see the javascript being inserted after the link for an ajax call. The problem is, when I click on the link, nothing happens. Using FF2 or IE7. I get no errors whatsoever (using Firebug). Firebug tells me that no XMLHTTPRequests were made at all. This leads me to believe that there is an error in my coding somewhere but, looking at the cake manual and other references, it seems that my code is correct. Maybe another pair of eyes can spot something that I am missing. Keep in mind that this is supposed to be a simple test for me to get the feel of how Ajax works with cakephp. I want to display http://localhost/user/ and get an Ajax link called Log In. When I click Log In, it will call http://localhost/user/login/ and I was expecting the result (<p>Hi!</p>) to update into my test div (testola). When I click login, it does nothing, no errors, no request calls, nothing. See the (**) notes after each piece of code. I am at a loss here. Sorry for the long post, I am trying to be thorough.
