i think you need the ajax_trap parameter to LOAD():
{{=LOAD('default','ajax1.load', ajax=True, user_signature=True,
ajax_trap=True)}}
if that does not work, can you run the code with a HTTP inspector in the
browser to see what URLs are actually being fetched when? i suspect that
the LOADed component is not posting to the right URL.
