I am using Ajax form posting. var options = { dataType: 'xml', beforeSubmit: post_request, success: response_xml };
$("#form").submit(function() { $(this).ajaxSubmit(options); // !!! Important !!! // always return false to prevent standard browser submit and page navigation return false; }); function post_request(formData, jqForm, options) { $("#busy").show(); return true; } function response_xml(responseXML) { $("#busy").hide(); //... } In Firefox this works fine. But in IE6 and IE7, the code never reaches the success handler. Hope this helps. Regards Louis.
