Hey Thanks a lot.
so if my jQuery.ajax is calling mycontent.php page will it also send ? q=test appened to the url? so that my php can pick it up using $_GET kind of confused on that part... sorry i am asking the above before reading the documentation you mentioned. I'll read the documentation shortly. thanks again :) On Oct 18, 9:07 pm, Sergei NZ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey man i'm new to jQuery too.
