Thanks for the tip about watching development.log, Colin. But now the mystery deepens. Using IE 8.0, EVERY AJAX call shows up twice. However, using the exact same links in Firefox 3.6.14, they only show up once. I am tailing the log file and watching it as I click on links in both browsers and I can see the duplicate entries going by in real time. It's happening for GET, POST and DELETE requests in IE, but only the ones running through AJAX. The same requests in Firefox only run once.
Interestingly, I'm not seeing the double success entries in Firefox any longer, but I just updated it this morning. Maybe I'm seeing something odd with the new jQuery implementation in 3.0?
