You dont need to submit again inside the submitHandler function.
$("form#send_gb").validate({
submitHandler: function(form) {
var gb_post = $("#gb_post").attr("value");
var userid = $("#userid").attr("value");
var ownerid = $("#ownerid").attr("value");
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "_scripts/send_message.php",
data: "action=send_gb& gb_post="+ gb_post +"& userid="+ userid
+"&ownerid="+ ownerid,
beforeSend: function() {
$("#gbPosts").prepend("<div id='sending'><div>");
},
success: function() {
$("#gbPosts").load("_members/gb_posts.php?funk&userID="+userid, function(){
$(".gb_message:first-child").hide().fadeIn(1200);
$("#gb_post").attr("value","");
});
}
});
}
});
