[jQuery] Submitting form via AJAX

>I have a secondary question on this code. How would this AJAX function be
"called" (in this particular case)? Is it jus on form submit?
This is the code. It is callen in a click event on a button:
-------------

$('#user_rating_form input[@type="button"]').click ( function() {
doSubmit = false;

$('#user_rating_form input[@type="hidden"]').each( function() {
if ( $(this).val() != 0 ) doSubmit = true;
});

if ( doSubmit == true )
{
$("#user_rate .valuations_actions").hide();
$("#user_rate .wait").show();
$('#user_rate input[@type="button"], #user_rate
input[@type="reset"]').set("disabled","true");

$.ajax({
url: "/ajax/ajax_process.phtml",
type: "post",
data: $.param( $("#form").formdata() ),

success: function(xml) {
alert ( $(xml).html() );
},
error: function() {
alert ("KO");
}
});
}
else
{
alert ( "You have to valuate at least one parameter" );
}

return false;
});
------------------
$.param( $("#form").formdata() ) doesn't work, and if i replace it by an
simple array,
success: function(xml) {
alert ( $(xml).html() );
},
Doesnt' work neither, it launch an "undefined" alert. The script that
processes de data is usign correctly "text/xml" headers. In fact, i'm using
this processing script in an old version of the js, that uses the $.post
function.
Thanks,

        Hi guys,

        I'm trying to implement some AJAX in a form, using 1.0a
version of Jquery.

        I have a couple of questions:

        - In principle, I've read in the docs at
http://proj.jquery.com that the form plugin is included in this version, but
formdata() or serialize() function doesn't work.
                 $.param( $("#form").formdata())
        - Regarding to new way of calling AJAX functions ( $.ajax
instead of $.post & $.get ):
        I'm trying to make this call
         $.ajax({
         url: "/ajax/ajax_process.phtml",
         type: "POST",
         data: $.param( $("#form").formdata() ),
         success: function(xml) {
         alert ( $("response", xml).text() );
         },
         error: function() {
         alert ("KO");
         }
         });
        But I cannot access the xml contents. What i'm doing wrong.
Have been any changes in the use of this functions? How would be the correct
way of serialize a form values,
        and later read the xml after processing it? Any online
examples using 1.0a online version?
        Thanks a lot!
