I am jquery for now almost 3 months. But, one thing I am not able
still figure out. This is more for a user convience. I want to let
user know which divs will be updated after certain action. For this, I
want to show a spinning wheel on the div that will be updated. But I
am not sure how to do this. I know you can use ajaxStart and ajaxStop,
but not sure how to make efficient use of them.

It seems to me that the simplest way to do this is to toggle the class 
of the target divs with something that includes a spinner, then toggle 
it off in your ajax callback.  Something like this:

CSS:
    #target.loading {
        padding-top: 50px;
        background: url("myspinner.png") top right no-repeat;
    }

HTML:
    <div id="target">...</div>

JS:

    function myAction() {
        $("#target").addClass("loading").load("my.url", function() {
            $(#target").removeClass("loading");
        });
    }

I'm sure it won't be as simple as "#target", but that's the main idea...

Would that do what you're looking for?
