where is data from AJAX POST?

I'd like to be able to POST some data periodically using
jQuery ajax
calls. The URL contains an ID that is parsed out in the
route, so the
controller should receive a value for
$this->params['id'].

But how do I grab the values for the data I've POSTed? I
thought it
would be in $this->data or might be in
$this->RequestHandler->params[]
but that seems not to be the case. Because this is ALAX i'm
finding it
difficult to debug this.

Note that I'm not using Cake's AJAX form creation or
anything like
that. I don't see how that would fit with what I'm trying to
do. This
isn't for submitting the entire form or saving the model,
but for
making incremental saves of data in a textarea (TinyMCE).
Think CMS.

Didn't try it, but I think it's in $this->params['form'],
anyway they
also should be in $_POST.
