Found a solution!
In the DOM ready code, use the following instead of an Event.observe()
$('frm').onsubmit = handler;
The function (handler) still has access to the event which is nice.
BUT...
There is another problem, I'm using Ajax.Request as I want to do
specific things with the data returned and when I submit the form to
the server (using Ajax only) the first time it works great. But if I
then submit the form again (with no full page refresh in between) it
doesn't work.
It's almost like the DOM ready code can't see the form anymore. Is
there a way to re-initialise the Prototype code when you come back
from an Ajax call or something?
