Hello, If there is 20 requests, it means you've bind 20 time the event click ;-)
So I don't think the problem is in this piece of code, but maybe come from it's location??? Is there any js in the page you load? Don't you load again jquery.js in the target div? Is there so much request when you click for the first time? I had such things that occured when I began whith jQuery, I was loading a page that called jquery.js, but this must be done only once or everything is done several times! I don't know if this explanation is clear and if that'll solve your problem, but maybe you should look in that way ? Best regards. $(barney)
