Using jquery to capture event and ajax call back

I'm trying to do something simple, capture any click event and send the url to a php script.

With the alert(a); the ajax.php will be call every single time, if I remove it, once every 20 clicks will work, I wonder if it's because the alert(a) slow things down ? 

$('a').click(function(){
    var a = $(this).attr('href');
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "/ajax.php",
        data: { b1: a , b2: "456" },

    });
    alert(a);
});

If you click on the A, there is still the event to go to another page. So do this:

$('a').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    var a = $(this).attr('href');
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "/ajax.php",
        data: { b1: a , b2: "456" },
        success : function(){
            document.location = a;
        }
    });
});
