Paul:

Same thing. The following ALL load the next page:

<a href="javascript:sndReq('rock');location.href='';" >Rock </a>
<a href="javascript:sndReq('rock');location.href='?';" >Rock </a>
<a href="javascript:sndReq('rock');location.href='index.php';" >Rock </a>

But, none also send the variable "rock" to ajax.

It works like this -- I can either send the variable "rock" OR launch 
the next page, but not both!

It don't make much sense to me, but that's the way it looks.
