This was helpful in determining that the problem is not in what is
coming back from the server, but rather what is sent to it. The full
jquery code for this page is below.
What is to happen is that an input box in my form called ajax is
supposed to be set to 1 when the page loads. This value of 1 is then
sent to the server which interprets it as a need to output the json
instead of the HTML. If I alert the value of the ajax input after
setting it, it returns 1, but if I alert this value in beforeSubmit of
the ajaxForm() call, it outputs 0. It is also outputting 0 to the
server, but only in IE.
Any thoughts?
