Well, to look at the actual AJAX response, you can use Firebug for
Firefox to see it.
You're suppose to have your remote page return "true" if it's good and
"false" if it's not okay.
Looking at your code, both username and email validation checks have
the same url and data. Ideally, you're suppose to pass the inputted
username and email data to that URL for your remote script to check
your database again those values, and return "true" or "false".
