Set session on jQuery.load function

Hi, I have a strange problem. Scenario: When loading an x page. I am making an ajax call in jQuery to server 'latest' action. Now, when I set a session in 'latest' action. To check check created session I made another ajax request to same 'latest' action.

Here created session is nil. code: --------------------------sample.js------------------------------ $("#latest_activities").load("#{latest_activities_path}");

$('.get-activities').click(function(){          //ajax request to latest_activities_path       });

def latest   p session['test']   session['test'] = 'test' end

I did got why it is not persisted.

Thanks, Aashish
