Thanks, Shawn & Nick for the replies. Making those changes got it working.
Can't believe I didn't catch the "=" in the $.ajax line...to used to starting with "values =" for my ajax routines. This one doesn't have values to be passed along. Thanks, again!

I think you want $.ajax({ cache: false, ... which will invoke the jQuery ajax method with your object as an argument. Regards, Nick. -- Nick Fitzsimons http://www.nickfitz.co.uk/
