I have a couple questions about the formSpecialPage class and how it works. For starters, I cannot seem to make anything happen in the onSubmit callback, regardless of what I do. In addition, I'm also not certain how to return error messages upon failure to perform the action. What's more, I made onSubmit() just return true regardless of anything, and I still could not get the onSuccess() message to display.
In a nutshell, I don't understand the submit process for this class, and would like some tips on how to make sure I'm doing everything properly.
My extension I am developing is located in my github, here: http://github.com/Justin-Folvarcik/ContactUs
Source for the class is in SpecialContactUs.php, and the js and css are currently unused while I work out the rest of the technical details. If I could possibly get some pointers about it, I'd appreciate it. I'm basically stuck, and don't know what to do next.
One other point I'd like advice on is ResourceLoader. I know it handles scripts and css, and I was told that it could be used to inject my script into the articles for my extension (different from ContactUs, and still in early stages of development). It's a JS based extension, and the PHP is only meant to be called via AJAX calls from the JS. I'm doing the testing of the JS on actual user/common.js pages currently because I don't know how to set my script up with MediaWiki. I tried using the $wgResourceLoader but couldn't produce any results, and I eventually decided it would be best to ask here.
Thanks in advance. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry if that was like "RTFM". If you have more specific ResourceLoader questions, please feel free to ask.

I realized that what I said might have given the wrong impression. This is a script which will be injected into the head of the page, setting event handlers for certain kinds of tables which will turn them into a mini editing form on click. It's for inline editing, as requested by a fellow staff member of my home wiki. We use tables pretty heavily and wouldn't mind having this functionality.

And yes, I did read that page. I just couldn't figure out what I could set $wgResourceModules to in order to accomplish my goal.
