Hi Everyone.

I am writing an ajax enabled menu for my onlinestore, basically i have a menu with categories

e.g.

pc's
worksatations
networking
laptopts
.
.

I have it working so that when the user clicks on one of these menu items it passes the clicked menu item as a parameter to my javascript function, this in turn passes the parameter to my php / xml (menu_result.php) script that displays the relevant products from my db populating my span tags in an ajax fashion.

My question is, if im making some sort of sense,

Is it possible for me to use a solution to the back button problem such as Dojo or Really Simple History, as i am using the one page (menu_result.php) to populate my span tags??

I have done a few examples but i dont really get why they use anchors, and how i would read those back to the server.

Hope im making sense.

Any ideas would be great.

Regards
