[jQuery] putting value to html from a php script

[jQuery] putting value to html from a php script


I am new to this group and JQuery. I am reading a lot of stuff about
it but I nee to ask a question for something that I to create.
I have an area in my html page where I want to call a php script that
prints a total.
Is it as simple as this:
$.get("totals.php" );
Am I in the rigth track?
Thanks,
Nestor :-)
