Yes, the code on your server works for me.  Though I didn't seem to me
that it would make any difference, I had a quick thought that it might
be that I was using the GET method rather than the POST method.
However, changing the method had no effect.

I'm using Firebug to inspect the DOM, GET/POST request, and the
response.  When I get the response back, it's garbled.  As long as I
specify the content-type as 'text/javascript' (and set the evalJSON
parm to 'force'), the responseJSON property is populated correctly.
However, when I set the content-type to 'application/json', the
response (i.e. responseText property) comes back garbled.  It contains
non-printable characters.  It's quite strange.  Here's a copy & paste
of the response:

�%  ���������� [EMAIL PROTECTED]   ������ z   k%   ������� z   k%   ������ z   k
%   ���� z@   % �%

We're running Apache on an IBM AS/400 machine, so our instance of
Apache might not like the 'application/json' content type.  Have you
heard of this before?  Can the Apache config file impact the content
types the Apache Web Server is willing to serve up?

Thanks!
