Rails spinoffs - Dec 2005 - Problem stopping default event in Safari

I''m going crazy here. I''m trying to stop a link from being
followed
after it''s clicked. It works everywhere except Safari (using v. 2.0.2
on Tiger)


I''m using behavior.js to attach events based on a class or an id:

*******************************************************
function loadData(e) {
          // load some data here based on the url of the a tag
(removed for simplicity)

          // then stop the defaultevent
          if(e) {
		Event.stop(e);
	    }
	    return false;
}

var ajaxRules = {
	''.ajaxLink'' : function(myAnchor) {
		// ... code to set up Ajax is up here (removed for simplicity)

             // put an event handler.
		Event.stopObserving(myAnchor, ''click'', loadData, false);


	}
};

Behaviour.register(ajaxRules);
*******************************************************

Any idea what I''m doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Return false in the onclick event.
