coldfusion ajax submit form to cfc

[Guest]

I am attempting to learn Ajax and have come across a problem. I want to submit the form values to a method. The code below succesffully contacts the cfc and the function however the form values are not being passed. I feel like I have tried everything I know to try. I would also like to inquire about a good place or good book to really learn Ajax and in particular Coldfusion and Ajax. (book or web site)

<cfajaxproxy bind="cfc:invoice.putItems({Add@click})">
<cfform name="formitems" id="formitems">

<cfinput type="text" name="item1" value=""  />
<cfinput type="text" name="item2"  value="" />

<cfinput type="button" name="Add" value="Add" id="Add">

</cfform>

This is what I use to submit forms via ajax:

<script type="text/javascript">
function updateErrorHandler(id,message) {
   
        alert("Error while updating\n Error code: "+id+"\n Message: "+message);   
    }   
    function doInsert(nForm) {   
      ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm(nForm, '/doInsert.cfm?method=insertData', resultInsertHandler, insertErrorHandler, 'POST');         
    }   
    function resultInsertHandler(returnMsg) {   
        var resultDiv = document.getElementById("result");
        resultDiv.visibility = 'visible';
        resultDiv.innerHTML = '<div>Success!</div>';
        resultDiv.visibility = 'visible';
        setTimeout("HideOpenMenus()",5000);
}
   
    function insertErrorHandler(id, message) {   
       alert("Error while updating\n Error code: "+id+"\n Message: "+message);
        var resultDiv = document.getElementById("result");       
        resultDiv.innerHTML = "<p>Failed!</p>";   
    }

</script>
