You can ask any component to generate an event request Link using its
component resources. In Tapestry, you don't try to second guess, on
the client side, what links will look like ... you ask the server side
to generate a link, and then your JavaScript code can send Ajax
requests to that component.
In terms of what you are trying to do ... Tapestry assumes most
requests from the client will generate a partial page render response
... a particular format JSON response that contains HTML plus details
about JavaScript libraries and initializations. In any case, that's
what a Zone (or anything Zone-like) needs. If you can, use Zone.
Alternately, a component may send a response directly back to the
client, which it be text, HTML, JSON, or something binary.
