PHP and Ajax form submissions. Succes and Error details - SOLVED ! :D

Hi everyone,

I just got a problem on ajax, I'm a newbie so I think it's a problem of a non-experienced developer more than a big deal. I have this code on my controller:

public function agregartarea(){ //evaluamos los usuarios

        permisos::evaluar('admin');  

        //datos que serán insertados en el array  
        $tareas ['nombre'] = input::post('nombre');
        $tareas ['id_maquina'] = input::post('id_maquina');
        $tareas ['descripcion'] = input::post('descripcion');
        $tareas ['comentarios'] = input::post('comentarios');
        $tareas ['estado'] = input::post('estado');
        $tareas ['fecha_inicio'] = input::post('fecha_inicio');
        $tareas ['fecha_fin'] = input::post('fecha_fin'); 

        //cargamos el modelo y la función del mismo modelo 
        $inserttarea = load::model('tareas');
        if($inserttarea->insertartarea($tareas)) {
            url::redirect('tareas/planning/'.input::post('categoria')); 
        } else {
             echo "There was an error inserting the data"; 
        }
    }

And I have this code into my view :

$("#submit_editar").click(function(e){ if($("#id").val() == ''){ e.preventDefault(); alert("Debes hacer click en alguna tarea"); } else {

                    jQuery.post('http://'+ url +'/prototipo/tareas/editar_tarea_new',                       
                            {
                            id : $("#id").val(),
                            nombre : $("#nombre").val(),
                            id_maquina: $("#maquina").val(),
                            estado : $("#estado").val(),
                            descripcion : $("#descripcion").val(),
                            comentarios : $("#comentarios").val(),
                            fecha_inicio : $("#dia_inicio").val(),
                            fecha_fin: $("#dia_fin").val()
                            }, function(res){}).done(function(){
                                alert("Success")
                            }).fail(function(){
                                alert ("Failure")
                            });                                     
            }           
        });

Well, I got no problem inserting the data into the DB but what I want is ajax to show the correspondent messages for each case: if there is an error updating the data I want Javascript showing the "echo" message from the php script. I've tested it in both ways and, despite php does' not insert a new data into the DB if there is an error, it still show the "success" alert. I've tried to solve it by using $.ajax and its correspondant success and fail options, but it did not work. So if any of you could give a hand? Many thanks! best regards,

Ricardo. p.d. the input::post("value") is because I'm using Dingo Framework. It's the same as $_POST('value'); www.dingoframework.com
