Have you followed any tutorials on Ajax? It should be pretty straight forward.

well im not coming from the clinet side and it been a while since i did
js so i need just some direction
thanks

What have you tried to do? Have you looked at any JavaScript tutorials. There are plenty out there on the web that show you how to make an Ajax call to the server and how to handle the response back.

Your question is rather vague so I can not help you out in greater detail.
