Question

I have a modal dialog which has a form. When a user clicks the submit button on the dialog, I want the form to be submitted, and it works fine. I am using ajax request, hence using return false; in the submit. Here’s my code:

    $("#new_account_class").live("submit", function(){
        $.post(this.action, $(this).serialize(), null, "script");
        return false;
    });

Now, I want the dialog to be closed within the same event. The problem is that, anything I write after return false; is not executed, and I cannot close the dialog before the return false. But there must be a way out, can anyone help, please? Thanks.

Answer 1

$("#new_account_class").live("submit", function(){
    $.post(this.action, $(this).serialize(), function(){
     //this callback is executed upon success full form submission close modal here

  }, "script");
    return false;
});
