[jQuery] Re: form plugin and blockUI problems in IE7 with the ui not unblocking

I found the problem, it was an extra form tag that I had on the page
nested in my other form tag. I copied and pasted in code for paging
from the table sorter plugin and never removed the form tag from the
example. Once I removed that it worked great. Thanks for your
response. I have to say that this is one of the best maintained boards
and software projects I have worked with. I have gotten some fast
responses here and appreciate everyone's help. JQuery is really cool!
