Hi James! Thanks for the quick reply. I'm still confused as to where I
should place my $(form).submit(..). so i'm not re-attaching additional
submit events?
What i'm doing basically is: 1. have Validate pass the form 2. submit
the form via ajax
The only thing is that the form is always being reused to submit data
which causes the symptoms you've identifed...
