You can have a look at eg. this Ajax with Django tutorial. Anyways as mentioned above you can always use django's template engine, no matter if the view is called in a normal or an ajax request! If you have to use ajax with django more frequently it makes sense to have a look at something like dajax, which is an ajax library for django (have a look at the tutorials there).
