alright, so I jumped the gun and posted. sorry..


The solution I ended up using was first adding javascript:void(0) to my <a href""> tag, however that broke Internet explorer.

so instead I have

print "<a href='#' onclick='listcountry(\"" . chr($letter) . "\");return false;'>" . chr($letter) . "</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;";

now if anybody can point me to a nice tutorial of how to use ajax with zen cart that would be amazing because it's just not work
