There is the old empty anchor (#). Is that what you mean?
Sure, if you are using <a>'s. Then just put a "return false;" in your handler to stop it "jumping" to the top of the screen. You could always use a <span>, then you don't have to worry about href etc. Although in an <a> you get free hover behaviour... This would be very neat. If I stored the records id in the id attribute,
eg: <.a href="#" class="delete" id="NSW">Delete<./a> how do I go about extracting that for use in the deletion function?
You can use this.id within the scope of the handler. eg: $("a.delete").click(function() { if (confirm("Really delete?")) { delete(this.id); } }); "this" will give you the element that was clicked. You can do $(this) to wrap that element in a jQuery object if you need extra functionality. So this.id is the same as $(this).id(). Cheers, Chris
