Loading a form into an overlay and closing it with submit button

Posted: Nov 12, 2009

Hello,
I am trying to load a forum into an overlay. it loads ok, but as Submit button is not in the original HTML, the library seems not to recognice it as a close button (if I move that button to the original HTML code, before loading, it closes the overlay ok, but doesn't submit the form.
My question is, how can I load a form and making the submit button of that loaded form submitting submitting the form while also closing the overly?

Thanks for any help,
Ignacio

A standard form needs to POST somewhere. You cannot do POST in an expose window. You need to POST to another page.

What you need to do is use ajax in your overlay, not use a form with POST.

So instead of form method="post" you need to save the information somewhere with $.get() or $.ajax()
