AJAX Helper (Orginally by Michael Wales):


function is_ajax() {

}

jQuery AJAX Code, with form reset and comment updating:


$(document).ready(function(){				
					$("#commentform").ajaxForm({ target: "#response", resetForm: true, success: function(data){
						$("#comments").empty().load("<?=site_url("comment/get")?>");
					}});					
});
