// ajaxSubmit
// Submit a form through Ajax. Doesn't handle file uploads yet.

// Parameters:
// form DOM element The form to submit
// button optional DOM element If set and a submit button of 'form', is added to the
// form arguments sent
// func optional Function Function to call once the call has been made or the
// result has arrived, if want_result === true
// want_result optional Boolean If true, call func with the result of the submit once
// it has arrived. Otherwise, call func as soon as the
// submit request has been received by the server, and
// ignore any result of the submit.
//
// Notes:
// Func should be a function (request). If func is not defined,
// ajaxSubmit just submits the form and ignores any result.
