Hi selecta,
the DIV is rendered fine in my tests, no need to add any prefix such
as '.html' or '.load' for it to work.
But having a LOAD in the controller generates an unnecessary ajax
call, and having the script action and view just makes web2py work
harder instead of letting the web server do it from static, not to
mention the clutter of having js all over your views directory.
Sorry, but I fail to see any benefit.
Maybe I am missing something...
