This is what I have so far
So this is the initial click which loads a form .
$('a[class^="edit_"]').click(function(){
var url_id = $(this).attr('href');
var e = $(this).attr('class');
var x = $(this).attr('id').split('_');
var y = x[0];
var z = x[1];
//alert(e);
$('a[class^="edit_"]').unbind('click');
$('a[class^="edit_"]').fadeTo('slow' , 0.25 ,
function() {
$('#resume_'+z).slideUp( 500 , function(){
$('#loading_'+z).show('fast',
function() {
$('#resume_'+z).load( url_id
, function(){
$('#loading_'+z).hide(function(){
$('#resume_'+z).slideDown(500).fadeTo('fast', 1.0).fadeIn('slow');
});
});
});
return false;
});
});
});
Then once the form is sumbitted
$('#UpdateForm').bind('submit', function() {
var queryString = $('#UpdateForm').formSerialize();
$(this).ajaxSubmit({
type: 'post',
url: 'update.php ,
data: queryString,
target: '#resume_'+skill,
success: afterEffects,
});
return false; // <-- important!
});
function afterEffects ()
{
$('#loading_'+skill).hide(function()
{
$('#resume_'+skill).slideDown( 500, function() {
$('a[class^="edit_"]').fadeTo('slow' , 1.0 );
//$('a[class^="edit_"]').bind('click');
});
});
}

Just had to ask, are you also providing the callback function also?
$('a[class^="edit_"]').bind('click');
should be:
$('a[class^="edit_"]').bind('click', someFunction);
