Nifty dynamic ajax content w/ jQuery
The way this works...
$get() calls the remote page (call-in.cfm), and {'showme': $(this).text()} sends the text of the clicked link
as a variable called 'showMe' in the url.
The page that is being called uses <cfif> to display different content based on that url variable.
$('#textShow').html(getText); puts the html we get from the ajax function into a div with id of 'textShow'
The overall result is as if the link was followed to "call-in.cfm?showMe=shakespeare", except
the content is called into the div called "textShow" in the same page without refreshing the browser!
The links are set to 'return false', so they don't actually get followed by the browser.
