Gabejazz,

>From what I understand, it looks like you have a form that looks like:

<form>
    <input type="submit" name="action" value="doSomething" />
</form>

If not, then I think this might be a problem with the code provided.

Please try what Rick Waldron suggested, as it may give you a better
perspective into the problem.  Beware though, you will need Firefox and
Firebug with the console enabled for this to work properly.

I'd hate to be a stickler as this seems like an honest problem, however
there are things I think we can all benefit from here:

1. Please provide a minimized example (read: paste minimal html+js
replicating the problem to http://pastie.org or similar)
2. Send mails like this to the regular JQuery mailing list (
http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-en).  If your example from step #1
proves to be un-answerable on the general list,  then we can probably help
as many of the jquery-dev's watch the jquery general list as well.
Unfortunately this list is for the core development of jQuery itself and not
support questions

Hope it helps,

-- Elijah
