I think you need to have a look over the Ajax docs again:
http://docs.jquery.com/Ajax
I'm not sure what you're expecting to have happen. What do you mean
"returns an array to an HTML template"? Your $.ajax(...) call will get
the contents of get_photos?vehicle_id=... and pass it as a parameter
to your success callback function where it's your responsibility to
deal with it (i.e., add it to the document). Maybe you want to do:
$.ajax({
...,
success: function(data) { $('#showPhotos').append(data); }
});
