[jQuery] jQuery Validate and Dialog Confirm. submit() not working.

[impact]

I have a form that is being valdiated with jQuery validate plugin. On
clicking submit, and after form has been succesfully validated, I want
a dialog confirmation to appear, then on clicking OK, the form
submits.

See my code below.  The Dialog opens fine.  Dialog works fine, but the
form does not submit when OK is clicked.

My guess is the .submit() call is sending the process back into the
validate() process, causing some kind of loop, but I can't think of
any other way to do this.

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong here will be greatly
appreciated.

// Initialize Dialog Box
                $('#dialog').dialog({
                        autoOpen: false,
                        width: 400,
                        modal: true,
                        title: 'Confirm Purchase of Credit.',
                        close: function() {$('#dialog p').empty();},
                        buttons: {
                                "Ok": function() {
                                        $("#purchase_credit").submit
();
                                        $('#dialog p').empty();
                                },
                                "Cancel": function() {
                                        $(this).dialog("close");
                                        $('#dialog p').empty();
                                }
                        }
                });



// dialog being opened from validate() using the submithandler.
submitHandler: function(form) {
                                $('#dialog p').append('Click \'OK\' to
confirm Purchase of $' + $("#cc_amount").val() + ' Credit.<br><br>This
amount will be charged to the Credit Card
Entered.');
                                $('#dialog').dialog('open');
                        }
