Good point Klaus :). I don't actually use any AJAX in my day to day
development, so I'm a bit rusty about how to get it all working.
Mike's Form Plugin is definitely the way to go for anything but the
simplest AJAX forms.

I don't recommend to intercept the button's click. A form can still be
submitted by hitting enter. Simply intercept the form's submit action.
The form plugin already does an excellent job at this for you and makes
it as easy as typing one line:
$('form').ajaxForm();
All the required parameters like url, method etc. are derived from the
form, which is how Progressive Enhancement works of course.
