Margaret,

Your best bet for jQuery AJAX is to use the $.ajax function to route 
your asynchronous communications.  All you need to do is include the 
main jQuery file and then define your $.ajax function(s) wherever 
appropriate.  The function has inbuilt success & error methods which 
capture your returned stuff from PHP and allow you to pass it through 
into the DOM.

See here for comprehensive documentation:
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
