I GOT IT. How to explain what the problem was?!...I've done a bit
of tweaking, but one thing is I was returning false from my form
submit handler WHICH IS WHY I WASN'T HITTING MY PHP $_POST BRANCH.
Whenever I would submit I was getting my default search page again.
Made the search field
Just as a side note..
if(isset($_POST['search_button'])){
echo $_POST['search_field'];
}
You should use an isset()
especially with available tools like jsbin ! http://jsbin.com/
if the google group app would allow it, i would include an invitation
to use it in my signature but that 's not possible or is it?

Basically, what I'm running into is my php branch is not executed
while the form has an id (jQuery is taking precendence). If I remove
the id, the php branch works, but then obviously the jQuery code
doesn't run.
Anyone have any ideas how I can get both to run? Can I put php code in
jQuery
I'm not sure I understand. If you're saying change my inputs to:
input id=search name=search type=text
input id=btnSearch name=btnSearch type=submit value=Go
That has no effect, the jQuery form binding still trumps the php $POST
branch.

Here's what I'm doing: On page load, I fetch/format some 3rd party
data. It always initially fetches the same data (and it works fine),
so think of the initial load like a default search results page. I
also have a search form on the page so users can fetch other data,
they just type in

The id attr. is solely for the DOM, while name is passed to the server.
Yes, that's quite true.
Yes, the id on the form element.
If I remove that, then var_dump $_POST, I'm definitely getting my form
info, for example here's a var_dump of my latest search:
array(2) { [search_field]= string(7) leopard [search_button]
= string(2) Go }
But then I already knew that because without the id I

I made a quick standalone page and it seems to work fine. Form submit
throws an alert then PHP echo's whatever you enter in the field. It
looks I have issues elsewhere in my code?
Here's the standalone page code:

What does your actual function do? Does it send anything to your PHP script?
No, it just sends a request/formats 3rd party info based on whatever
the user searches for.
