It's working for me.

This is working, for example.

var text Update= URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&rid=" & ToText([Record ID#])  & "&_fid_188=" & ToText(Now());

var text URL = 
"javascript:" &
"$.get('" & 
$Update & 
"',function(){" &
"$.jGrowl('This Item has been put on PO CANCEL snooze', {life: 5000, theme: 'jGrowl-green'});" &
"});" &
"void(0);";

"<a class='Vibrant Danger' href=\"" & $URL &"\"" & ">Button name goes here" &  "</a>
