sendAndLoad() & send() methods

Hello, i have a form with lots of checkboxes, and i'm trying to send the forms value pairs to ASP. I've tried to use send & sendAndLoad and both don't seem to do it, although if I use send() a window pops open and it contains the variables, but i would like the page not to go to another page cause later on I have grab the ASP values and display them in a text box. So how can i submit the checkboxes to an asp page and not get redirected to it or open another window?

This is what I have:

on (release){
formdata = new loadvars();
