ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm error handler problem with AppleWebKit-based browsers

Question

All-
When using an AppleWebKit-based browser (i.e. Safari or
Chrome), the
message argument of the Coldfusion.Ajax.submitForm error
handler always contains the string "OK", regardless of what error
was cfthrown by my CFM form handler.
Recall that the signature for the error handler is this:
MyFormErrorHandler = function( code, message )
In other browsers (i.e. IE or Firefox), the
message argument of the error handler properly contains the
message that was cfthrown by my form handler.
Can anyone offer any guidance for this problem? Thanks in
advance for your help.

I was testing on IE8, Windows7 Starter.  I don't have IE6 available to test on.  Can test on IE7 a bit later on, but I have to fart-arse around with a VM to get it ready, so I'll do that after work.
I tested multiple submits both via clicking between the tabs within one main "request" as well as multiple entire requests (like via refreshing the whole browser window).  I had no problems.
I think you're being quite optimistic ot expect AJAX stuff to work reliably on IE6.  IE6 crashes.  That's what it's most famous for doing.  One needs to expect crashes if one pushes it (push it anywhere than out the window, that is).  And your client company's IT dept should be lined up against a wall and shot for still running it.  That's professionally negligent IMO.  But... you probably don't need to be told that.
