it's been a while, but I'm not sure if $F is reliable when used to update a
field value - IE vs FF vs Saf thing - i'd use $('greeting').value =
whatever.
but -- have you tried ajax.updater?
and passed it 'greeting' as the element parameter?
something to the effect of
new Ajax.Updater('greeting',
'proto_test_script.php',
{
method: 'GET',
parameters: 'name=' + $F('name')
})
