How to do a Jquery Callback after form submit?

Viewed 334808

I have a simple form with remote=true.

This form is actually on an HTML Dialog, which gets closed as soon as the Submit button is clicked.

Now I need to make some changes on the main HTML page after the form gets submitted successfully.

I tried this using jQuery. But this doesn't ensure that the tasks get performed after some form of response of the form submission.

$("#myform").submit(function(event) {

// do the task here ..

});

How do I attach a callback, so that my code gets executed only after the form is successfully submitted? Is there any way to add some .success or .complete callback to the form?

The form's "on submit" handlers are called before the form is submitted. I don't know if there is a handler to be called after the form is submited. In the traditional non-Javascript sense the form submission will reload the page.
