>> Why use PHP? 

So it can be done robustly on the server and more easily debugged, for me anyway.

Why use PHP? DOM manipulation in jQuery is easy. The jQuery to do it  
is light:

$(document).ready(function() {
     $('.nav a').click(function() { //when you click on a link within  
the .nav container
         var url = $(this).attr('href'); //creates a variable of the  
link's href attribute
         $('#content').load(url + ' #contentInside'); //loads the  
entire #contentInside content into #content, if #contentInside exists,  
it replaces it
         return false; //don't follow the link
     }
     );
);
