I've got a piece of code :

/views/measurements/index.html.erb

<b>Status:</b><div name="status" id="status"></div>
<%= periodically_call_remote(:update => "status", :frequency => 5, :url => { :action => :last_measurement } ) %>

/controller/measurements_controller.rb

 def last_measurement
 @measurement = Measurement.find(:last)
 render :partial => 'last_measurement'
 end

/views/_last_measurement.html.erb


<%= @measurement.time %> ; <%= @measurement.data %>

It works nicely until I add <%= javascript_include_tag "jquery-1.4.2.min.js" %> in the view.
Once I add the jQuery, I can see in the console that the script works, but the div is not updating.

Why is jQuery braking my code ? Is there a way to fix this ?
