What does this mean?javascript:void(0)?

Ha ha — your funny, but I know, those are so annoying…. What that is, is a javascript command that is listening for an event to occur. The event the page is listening for is your mouse click. When you click the New Homes category, the event is fired and in this case a little program rewrites what the search form looks like to provide you other options more tailored for that type of search. Click it – you will notice the search form options changes a little bit but the page you are on does not refresh or reload. This is a good thing – less wait time for you. the word “void’ is a programming keyword to tell the browser to not wait for a response from the little program that re-writes the search form options you see. Its basically telling your browser — “Bye, don’t wait up for me…

It’s hard to explain if you don’t already know what HTML and Javascript are. I know it’s annoying, but you can’t change it. You can click on that button, but you cannot right-click it.
