    this.init();

     
       
         
     
     
         
         
           
         #arguments.salesPrice# 
         
     
 

I use JQuery.ajax:

  $.ajax({
      type:"POST",
      url:"financeTerms.cfc?method=getFinanceTerms",
      data: "sales_price=55000&interestRate=5.99",
      cache:false,
      success: function(msg) {
      $("#someDiv").html(msg);
      }
  });

Perhaps, it will be useful to somebody else...
