set the hidden field to not hidden for debugging, and you can see that 
setting the URL field bit works each time, but the something else 
returns an error in IE6 Win XP.

It works for me if I replace the javascript:void() in the href with a "#";

Ironically, doing the form in a more accessible way as noted by others 
would probably fix your JS problem - have never used void in this 
fashion so not sure why it's an issue in the first place
