This is how I request data via ajax for html form with id 'formdata'. I serialize the data from the form, and submit it via ajax to a raw view, and then i display the content of the raw view as plain text in a div with id 'myformoutput'

<script type="text/javascript">
function formupdate()
{
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=outputview&format=raw",
        data: $('#formdata').serialize(),
        cache: false,
        success: function(html) {
        $('#myformoutput').html(html);
        }

      });   
}
</script>

The raw view is from the component com_mycomponent, and the view name is 'outputview'.

'outputview' has the file view.raw.php instead of view.html.php. it contains:

class mycomponentViewoutputview extends JView {

function display($tpl = null) 
    {
         echo 'this is raw text';
    }

}
