Thanks,
Here is the code I used: $("a.emailitem").click(function(){ var i = $(this).attr("id"); var y = i.split("|"); var url = "/emailstory/index/" + y[1]; $("div.newsitememail:eq(" + y[0] + ")").load(url); $("div.newsitememail:eq(" + y[0] + ")").toggle(); } ); I'm going to put the "return false" into this as well.
