call a function from a link

[asma]

i already have a xen:callback that runs the function on page load. i want to add a link where the user clicks it to re run the function as many times as he likes

function loadMore()
{
echo "look a new line! <br/>";
}

then in my template
<a href="???">Magic!</a>

it will call the function

can this be done?

i tried this also didn't work
<a href="#" onclick="{xen:callback class='my_php_file' method='loadMore'}">Magic!</a>

Oh, yeah. That's not how that works at all. The callback tag is to render content from php. You need to trigger Javascript that makes an Ajax request to the php.
