I'm too lazy to try it now :) But for some reason I have it in my head to not use void. Or maybe, it was void(), and void(0) is okay? Oh well. I have not had any issues with "javascript:;" as of yet though. Perhaps the next time I need to write some code like that I will try void(0) - but I haven't coded any pseudo-dead links like that recently.

I'm unable to find the documentation right now, but it seems that in javascript syntax that's the way for a function returning null.
