Hi again,
I tried that but got the same results.
if(res.result == '1') {
$('form#submit').hide();
$('div.success').fadeIn('medium');
} else {
$('div.error').show();
}
if(res.result == 1) {
$('form#submit').hide();
$('div.success').fadeIn('medium');
} else {
$('div.error').show();
}
res.result is always false even though firebug says the response is
{"result":1}.
Rob.
