Hi
Looking for help from anyone who has experience with lightwindow here! (seeing as it looks like their forum has been down for a while.)
Lightwindow has built in functionality for doing ajax form submissions. Although there is no documentation at all on it, from what I've figured out through their example, form submission sends two requests, the first to submit data and a second to get the server response. I don't know why anyone would want this functionality, and I don't know how to turn it off or work with it. I am making an email submission form, that should return the success status of the email, but apparently the only way to accomplish this would be to store the response in a file and wait for the second request, which would be a non threadsafe and bad solution.
Here's a link to their site demo page:

If you look at the forms example with firebug or safari dev console, you can see what I'm talking about..
Please, any help is much appreciated!!
Thanks,
--Peter
