Submitting a Custom Modal Form with ajaxSubmit Without Losing Server Validation
A modal form should not just show a fake success message; it should preserve the actual server response, including validation and thank-you states.
One common AJAX mistake is to replace a real form workflow with a hardcoded success message. That may keep the modal open, but it also throws away the server-side validation, thank-you logic, and custom response handling that the original form already had.
Better approach
Use ajaxSubmit or a custom AJAX handler to submit the form, but render the actual server response back into the modal container rather than simulating success on the client.
This preserves validation messages, field errors, and thank-you templates exactly as the form processor intended.
