I should point out that I have sort of been able to solve this by
amending the new action of the tasks controller and adding this to its
responds_to block:

format.js do
render :update do |page|
page.insert_html :bottom, :tasks, :partial => 'projects/
task', :object => Task.new
end
end

The only problem with this is that I've used a remote link, so it's
had to go back to the server, rather than all be done client side as
it was before... is there another way?
