Thanks for hint :)
I was testing Event.stop but somehow I was thinking about it only in
context of failed validation inside my onSuccess function. I just
haven't thought about stoping even earlier before ajax request and
then just submiting form by myself.

No I have 2 functions to run on sumbit:
- nice validation of many other fields in browser
- simple checking if username is taken by ajax request
If it is taken I don't want to submit form and reload the whole page
agan - that's all :)
Thanks a lot :)
