Serialize not working for unknown reason

[mattiv]

Trying to submit a form with post(), serializing the form inputs. The form is presented in thickbox and uses validate plugin.

However, serialize() returns an empty string. Even after good amount of battling, I couldn't find the reason, but came sure that this must be the problem. (The object is the correct form and other functions, such as val() appear to work normally. Now sending the form with "writing out" the variables ( "{var1: value, var2: another}" ) for the post() function.

You're disabling all of your inputs before serializing the form. Disabled inputs do not submit, so therefore they do not serialize.
