The implicit method used by prototype is POST and you got two possibilities to submit post data. Either via the parameters option, or via the postBody parameter.
new Ajax.Updater('id_of_html_to_be_updated', 'url', {
parameters: {
id: 1,
name: "string"
}
});
// OR
new Ajax.Updater('id_of_html_to_be_updated', 'url', {
postBody: 'id=1&name=string'
});
In the first version prototype converts the parameters option to a query string, while in the second example you explicitly state the query string in the postBody parameter.

@user2959196 it's not clear from your comment if you mean by parameters - URL parameters. If so you can just concatenate those parameters in the URL

@mhiza Really sorry for putting up a comment in a wrong way. I have to pass two different contents in POST method call. content 1 - pass via body. content 2 - pass via parameters. Both contents has to be supplied in a same AJAX call. HOW TO DO IT ! ! !. Prototype is providing 'postBody' attribute to pass via body. and 'parameter' attribute to pass via url. But I when i add the both content , It is not helping me.

new Ajax.Updater('section', '/url?parameter=value', { postBody: content }); ?ArunRaj
If it is a post method parameter, may i append it directly in the Url like the following url?parameter=value

You supply them via the parameters option:
new Ajax.Updater('targetId', '/your/url', {
parameters: {
foo: "fooValue",
bar: "barValue"
}
});
See the docs for details; docs for the various common Ajax options are here. The above updates the element with the ID "targetId" with the results of POSTing the parameters foo and bar to /your/url. Because I've supplied the parameters as an object, Prototype handles applying encodeURIComponent to them for me.
