In “traditional” ASP.NET (Web Forms), the UpdatePanel control lets you do a partial refresh of a part of a page. You don’t need to write much code to hook this up.
What’s the equivalent in ASP.NET MVC? I’m guessing I’d need to use a partial view for the bit that I want to update, then on the client side retrieve that HTML and pump it into the innerHtml of the correct DIV?
A tutorial/example would be helpful…
A quick google with your tags throws up a bunch. This is pretty good:

And yes, you’re just calling a controller to return rendered HTML which you then inject. Much lighter than the updatepanel and almost as easy to implement.
