The form plugin's call point is earlier and lets you modify the form before it's serialized and passed on to ajax(), which would now have a "before" handler. If there's some way to resolve the call arguments and "this" usage I think it would be great to extend "before", but it seems tricky. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
