how do i refresh the div after a click function using jquery?

Question

im trying to refresh a div on the page using jquery after a click function:

$('.finishTag').live('click', function() {
           $('#Qtopics').hide();
            //refresh #hiddenTopic here im stuck here :))
           $('#hiddenTopic').show();

            });

EDIT:

i mean refresh the div once!! and then show it because its hidden at this point!!!

<div id="hiddentTopic">
 <?php

       while ($Qtopic = mysql_fetch_array($getTopics)){
         echo "<a href='google.com' class='topicBullet'>".$Qtopic['name']."</a>";
             }
?>
       </div>

After you edit post - You want to rerun php part by javascript? :))) — Emmerman

If I understood it right, you wanna reload content, generated by php part. It's impossible because php is a server-side part while javascript - client-side. What you neeed is to make file server.php, move php part there and then use $('#hiddenTopic').load("server.php"); As @gowri said before.

Simply $('#hiddenTopic').load("server.php?comment_id=" + comment_id );

IF you want to change the formating of div you can do that using any css class like this: $('divId').addClass('class_name');

to add data you can pick the div using divid and update its innet paragraph aur heading text like this:

$('div1 p').html('blah blah any text … '); $('h2').text('blah blah blah blah …');

$('START!').prependTo('#divID'); (it write START before div) $('END!').appendTo('#divID'); (it write END after div)

hope this ll help you.
