Answer 1

No matter what, you're going to need at least two things:

1. Your javascript code to make the call (you have this)

2. Server side code to handle the request (this is your view and url-config)

There is absolutely nothing "hacky" about this.

The third thing, your template file, is optional - but is generally good practice. You want to separate your markup from the code, for many reasons.

So I think you've got the right idea. Carry on.
