I''m a bit confused about how the Controller works for calls that aren''t intended to be remote (non-Ajax). Specifically, if I don''t want to interact with a Model. Does ":action => whatever" always result in a call to the server? Or is it handled like a javascript function (locally, on the client) in the cases where no Model interaction is needed? For
