title: Show data in real time with AJAX/Jquery/PHP
body: <p>I am fairly new to PHP but was looking at this tutorial. <a href="http://www.devirtuoso.com/2009/07/beginners-guide-to-using-ajax-with-jquery/" rel="nofollow">http://www.devirtuoso.com/2009/07/beginners-guide-to-using-ajax-with-jquery/</a> 
  I want to test a similar concept to display data from my database on a page when someone submits data via a form.
  eg there is a page where you choose what color shoes you want and a page with a leaderboard to see how many times each color has been chosen.
  I have no problem submitting the form but don't no where to start to look to get the contents to display on the leaderboard using ajax.  Can anyone point me in the right direction here please?</p>
