stop thinking and use jQuery

html

  <div id="here"></div>

jquery

<script>
    $('#here').html("<%= j(render partial: 'profiles/users') %>");
</script>

In Rails, You put your view files in app/views/controller_name/action_name.html.erb

Take a look at this to get a better understanding -- http://blog.codinghorror.com/understanding-model-view-controller/

Also consider doing the Rails Tutorial(Hartl), that should get you started in understanding how the framework works.

Update

Change your header.html, and rename it to _header.html.erb

in your action_name.html.erb,

write 

<%= render 'header' %>

the _ denotes that it's a partial
