Attach your event listener to your form instead of the seperate
elements, though I think it would be better if you didn't replace any
elements and just return a a better response from the server (for
example JSON with some vars/messages).
Reattaching event listeners is a pain and because you don't really
remove the old event listener it stays in the memory and thus creating
a memory leak.
