Quick Example

<?php
echo CHtml::ajaxSubmitButton('ButtonName',Yii::app()->createUrl('advert/LoadAdvertFromSay'),
                    array(
                        'type'=>'POST',
                        'data'=> 'js:{"data1": val1, "data2": val2 }',                        
                        'success'=>'js:function(string){ alert(string); }'           
                    ),array('class'=>'someCssClass',));
?>

ajaxSubmitButton()

You need a data parameter inside the ajaxoptions

    $url = '/', 
    $ajaxOptions=array (

        'dataType'=>'json',
        'success'=>'function(html){ jQuery("#your_id").html(html); }'
        ),

To pass the data, you need to add it to your ajax array, e.g.:

<?php
echo CHtml::ajaxSubmitButton('ButtonName',Yii::app()->createUrl('advert/LoadAdvertFromSay'),
                    array(
                        'type'=>'POST',
                        'data'=> 'js:$("#dataContainer").serialize()',
                        'success'=>'js:function(string){ alert(string); }'           
                    ),array('class'=>'someCssClass',));
?>

In this case, all input type elements in the element with id dataContainer would be submitted, and could be accessed via $_POST.

Obviously, the JS could be more complicated, you could get values from certain elements, and build your own object, e.g.:

'data' => 'js:{"field1": $("#input1").val(), "pageTitle": $("title").text() }'

Then, in your controller, you could access $_POST["field1"] and $_POST["pageTitle"], though I generally tend to access items via CHttpRequest::getParam() as then I can get either POST or GET values, e.g. CHttpRequest::getParam('field1')
