[Seaside] jQuery dialog question

[Paul DeBruicker]

For your imageButton code you can add a #bePush to ensure the "submit"
behavior is ignored.  

If its not part of a form would it refresh the page if it is "submitting" ? 
I'm not sure.  

When you click it what network events are logged in the browser?
