The Ajax Submit module, part of Javascript Tools, enables form submission via AJAX. I wrote it originally for Drupal 4.6, long before we had jQuery support in Drupal core or a jQuery form plugin. http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/jstools/aja...
I'd like to deprecate Ajax Submit and merge it into jQuery Form, to take advantage of the superior coding and additional methods in the jQuery plugin.
Ajax Submit includes an admin UI for attaching the behaviour to forms, using the Form Store module to determine which forms exist.
Does merging Ajax Submit in seem like a good direction?

wim leersjQuery Form was intended to have no UI whatsoever, to have no overhead at all. On the other hand, this is an excellent feature and little code is required. I have only one major concern: will the form listing be usable? It displays form id's, not human readable form names... Perhaps it's better to make this a submodule of jQuery Form?

nedjoYes, maybe a jquery_form_ui module would make sense, adding optional UI elements.

wim leersA port to Drupal 6 won't be necessary, because this jQuery plugin is now in Drupal core! Which also means that merging that module into this one makes very little sense.
