Here was the problem.
I should have been calling the function (getAdjForm) using onComplete:
function getTerritories() {
var params = $('createAdjForm').serialize();
new Ajax.Updater(
"territories",
"<?= $this->url(array('controller'=>'index', 'action'=>'get-
territories'))?>",
{method:'post',
parameters: params,
onComplete: getAdjForm});
}
I have a lot to learn.
