works like a charm, thanks a lot.
- //$('#pardot-form-handler').load(function(){
- $('#pardot-form-handler').on('load', function(){
Can't get it to work. Do you have a live example? Will it work with a .NET site?
The gist looks great. The one thing I am still trying to understand is why would I want to use an iframe to post to pardot? Is it for security?
I tried a similar approach; I use $.post to POST form values to a PHP file. And there I use CURL (curl_exec) to post everything to the pardot form handler. Everything works fine but the Pardot cookies are not being set. Is the iFrame method a better method?

That's because you are doing a server side post. When you make the request from your server, Pardot sets the tracking cookies on your CURL's request. You want the cookies set on the client's browser. This is why the iframe works better, because the client browser is making the request.
Great gist, works perfectly.
One small typo on line 11, there is a variable declared (and invoked on line 19):
Which is a misspelling of 'pardot' (extra 't' before the 'd') which might cause confusion if typed.
