[Rails] Feeling silly

[Gerald Anderson]

I don't know why, but I am drawing a complete blank on something that 
should be easy.  I've been searching, perhaps using wrong terms, and 
still not coming up with anything. Here's what I'm trying to do:

<div class="button"
              onMouseOver='this.className="button_hover"';
              onMouseOut ='this.className="button"';
              onClick    ='this.className="button_click";
                           open("/main/test");'>
              Clear Event
            </div>

Where the div is a homemade css button.  onClick, the button needs to 
make a change in css class and make an js/ajax call to a url (will be 
generated with rails, but /main/test is proof of concept).  I'm not at 
all sure how to handle this, and I know I should know, hehe.

I would appreciate any help getting my brain turned around the right way 
on this.

Thanks!
