Question
If so how?
Did you roll your own with jQuery or use the Microsoft AJAX toolkit?
Did you create a webservice or call an action?
EDIT : Please note that this question was asked before Microsoft announced that they were going to bundle jQuery in with VS/ASP.NET MVC. I think there is less of a discussion around this topic now and the answer would now almost always be 'use jQuery'. IainMH 11th Feb 2009
Solution
jQuery, action, return JSON.
OTHER TIPS
I've spent the past day or two getting @Matt Hinze's answer to work. It works well. jQuery is the prefferred method of doing AJAX in the forthcoming ASP.NET MVC In Action book from Manning. You can get a pdf of a free preview chapter on AJAX in MVC here.
However, Stephen Walther in his excellent ASP.NET Tip series has just blogged about creating cascading dropdowns in Tip #41.
