Ferric - I believe (though I'm not totally sure) that .load uses a "get"
rather than a "post". Try doing "url.albumID" rather than "form.albumID" in
your ColdFusion code and see how that works.

Subject: [jQuery] .load() post issues
I'm having a problem getting my server side script to see the
variables posted by a .load(). Consider this code snippet:
$('#modal_editphotos').load('/includes/members/ajax_edit_album.cfm',
{ albumID: 3 });
Given that it is coldfusion, I should be able to access the variable
"albumID" with "form.albumID," however, the response is a 500 error
saying that "albumID" does not exist. A GET method works fine
(referring to albumID as "url.albumID"), but I cannot for the life of
my figure out why these vars are not being sent correctly. Firebug
reports that the variables are being sent ("albumID=3").
Any ideas why I cannot access this POST variable?
