Hey Andy,
I've seen this work so I'm guessing there is something else going on
in the page or it's probably a browser compatibility problem.
What browser are you using? Do you see the same thing in other browsers?
Are you getting a javascript error when the page loads or you post the form?
Have you tried setting a breakpoint in the linkZone function or the
handler to see if they are getting called?
I once named an input field in a form "tagName", which you clearly
aren't doing here, but I spent an hour or two trying to figure out why
my form was reloading the whole page instead of just doing the async
call... I eventually found that tagName is reserved, and used during
linkZone to determine if the element was a form. If you happened to
have something else in the page with the id "resort" then you could be
having a similar problem.
