The short answer is yes, it does work. As long as the Javascript entity
called "Post" refers to a class created by Jester then it will work.
Like most things there are a number of gotchas: Jester does not work
properly with IE7; issues can be caused by ruby/rails/Jester version
mismatches and your controllers must be set up to respond with xml ie
respond_to do |format|
format.html # show.rhtml
format.xml { render :xml => @subcat.to_xml }
I have Jester and raw Javascript working with a significant set of
hierarchical data structures and it works pretty well flawlessly.
