If you can't remember whether it was wrapped in CDATA, the fact that it's not now working does not indicate that CDATA has anything to do with it. >> I've used the Web Inspector tool in Safari to inspect the HTML view >> being returned by the $ajax->link and the appropriate JavaScript is >> there, however when loaded into the page, the JavaScript is stripped. >> I thought it may be something to do with prototype's evalScripts >> stripping the JavaScript from the returned view, however even when I >> turn it off, the JavaScript isn't included. Setting it to false will guarantee that it will not work. I gave up on Prototype a long time ago, so I'm not sure what to suggest. But, evalScripts is an option for Ajax.Updater. There's also a more general Ajax option, evalJS: http://www.prototypejs.org/api/ajax/options Can you see which Content-type header is being returned? Without seeing any code, though, it's difficult to suggest anything else. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Re: evalScripts and AJAX forms
Okay, I think I've found out why it isn't working - the Javascript in the Ajax response is coming through surrounded in CDATA tags, which is why it's getting stripped. I can't remember if JS has always come back in CDATA tags because like I said, it was working at one point, which would indicate JS wasn't coming back within CDATA tags.
